Fior di Capra spreadable
A speciality of the Val di Fiemme, this pasteurised goat’s cheese is perfect for spreading or for many other delicious dishes
Description
Fior di Capra Spreadable is a refined fresh cheese made from pasteurised goat’s milk, characterised by an extremely creamy texture and a delicate flavour that combines sweetness with pleasant tangy notes. Inspired by the French cheese-making tradition, it is produced through a slow lactic fermentation lasting around 24 hours, a process that enhances its soft texture and aromatic elegance.
Made with just a few selected ingredients – fresh goat’s milk, lactic cultures, salt and a minimal amount of rennet – it is a genuine and versatile product, ideal both for eating on its own and for use in numerous culinary preparations.
Production
The slow lactic fermentation, which takes around 24 hours, allows the typical aromatic freshness and soft texture that characterise this cheese to develop naturally. The result is a firm yet easily spreadable cream with a balanced and refined flavour.
