Cheese review: Patches of Star Diary Queso Blanc
Friday, May 16, 2008
Last weekend at the Headhouse Square market, I could not resist picking up a package of this Tomato Basil Queso Blanc. I’ve never heard of Patches of Star Dairy before. As it turns out, Patches of Star Dairy has been around for quite some time - and now they produce thousands of gallons of organic raw goat milk every year. The dairy only produces queso blanc, a cheese that is essentially fresh curds.
I make fromage blanc at home, but I’ve never had it made from goat milk. The Patches of Star cheese is delicious - it’s nice and crumbly with a great taste. It would make a stellar cheese to crumble over a salad.
