Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

3/4 cup soft goat cheese

1 c cream or -- ½ and ½, or whole milk, or vegetable stock

2 teaspoons minced rosemary -- basil, or thyme

1/2 tablespoon salt

pepper, to taste

mashed garlic, to taste

 

Mash the cheese into the liquid and stir in the garlic. Heat over medium

heat, stirring regularly, until cheese melts and the liquid simmers.

Cook the sauce for 5-15 minutes - the longer you cook, the thicker it will

be.

Season with minced herbs, salt and pepper.

 

Time 10-20 minutes

 

For my NO COOK version: Put cheese, cream (or liquid of choice), in food

processor with herbs and garlic. Process to paste-like consistency. Leave

some lumps in if you like. Add cracked black pepper or red pepper flakes

to taste. Makes a 5 min sauce no cook sauce perfect for hot weather.

NOTES : This sauce goes well with vegetables - particularly eggplant - and

ravioli. For a colorful variation, try topping the sauce with some

julienned sun-dried tomatoes. If you like goat cheese, you'll love

this simple sauce.

 

Chupa's Note: Using feta, I substituted the rosemary with 1 T

dried peppermint to up the Greekness and used dried red pepper

flakes for color, leaving out the salt all together. If you make

it with vegetable stock and toss with warm whole wheat

pasta, it makes a terrific take-along pasta salad. Add sliced

kalamata olives, capers, finely chopped assorted colored bell

peppers, rehydrated sun-dried tomatoes, and pepperonici along with

shredded raw spinach. Top with sliced canned cooked beets. Doesn't

get any healthier or any prettier. It can also sit in the sun and

not poisin anyone!!!

 

If you reduce the amount of liquid it makes an excellant spread or

dip.
