Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 10-ounce log of goat cheese
  • 5 edible flowers (such as nasturtiums, pansies, or violets)


Instructions

  1. Prepare the Cheese: Place the 10-ounce log of goat cheese on a cutting board. Using a butter knife, smooth the surface of the cheese to create an even, attractive surface for decorating.
  2. Decorate with Flowers: Gently place the edible flowers on top of the cheese log, arranging them evenly to create a visually appealing design without pressing too hard to avoid damaging the flowers or cheese.
  3. Serve: Transfer the decorated cheese log onto a charcuterie board or a serving platter. Serve alongside an assortment of crackers or bread for guests to enjoy.

Notes

  • Use fresh, pesticide-free edible flowers safe for consumption like nasturtiums, pansies, or violets.
  • For best flavor and texture, serve the cheese log at room temperature.
  • Can be prepared up to a few hours ahead; keep refrigerated until ready to serve but allow to come to room temperature before serving.
  • Pair with honey, nuts, or fruit for added flavor variety on the cheese board.
