Ingredients

  • 1 Goat Cheese Log

  • 1tbls Aleppo

  • 1tbls Urfa Biber

Method

We like to use a young goats cheese on this which contrasts the spice of the Aleppo and Urfa Biber well. This one is so easy, simply sprinkle a generous amount of Aleppo and Urfa onto your goat’s cheese to your liking. Here we use about a tablespoon each to coat the top which just gives it a lovely presentation.
