laura chenel’s debuts black truffle goat cheese
01.29.18
Laura Chenel, the premier American chèvre from Sonoma since the 1970s, just debuted new Black Truffle Cabecou. It’s a dense, yet soft goat cheese disk steeped in Truffle Oil and Black Truffles, making it the brand’s third marinated chèvre product following the success of its Original Marinated Cabecou with Herbs and its Marinated Spicy Cabecou.
Cut from Laura Chenel’s Original fresh goat cheese logs, the Cabecou cheese rounds are dried on racks for five days before being hand-packed in leak-proof, recyclable plastic jars which resemble mini buckets.
As the pioneer of American goat cheese, it is no surprise that Laura Chenel’s was the first to introduce Cabecou to the US market in 1984, offering more product options for chèvre fans. With a unique usage profile, marinated Cabecou can be simply placed atop a salad, spread on crostini, or melted into recipes. The aromatic oils can be used as an ingredient or in the cooking process if desired.
You can find Laura Chenel’s new Black Truffle Cabecou locally at Whole Foods and Gelson’s Markets.
