The distinctive light colour of goat's cheese
Goat cheese is an excellent alternative for people with cow's milk allergy. Goat's cheese can generally be recognised by its light (almost white) colour. Goat's milk cheese owes this colour to a healthy property of the goat: the substance cartogen is converted into vitamin A.
In cow's milk, this substance causes a yellow or reddish colour. As goats convert this substance into vitamin A, it is therefore less present in the cheese, which reduces or eliminates the yellow or reddish colour.
The unique taste of goat's cheese
Compared to cow's cheese, goat's cheese has a milder taste, some also call it nutty and sweet. With this unique flavour, goat's cheese is ideally suited to be flavoured with various herbs and seasonings. Our range of goat cheeses therefore consists of several unique goat cheeses, each with its own surprising flavour.
Choose a goat's cheese with truffle, a blue goat's cheese or a goat's cheese with fenugreek. Enough varieties and flavours to enjoy this delicious cheese to the full.
Different types of goat's cheese: hard and soft
Goat's cheese is available in several varieties. Hard goat's cheese generally comes from Dutch soil. Soft goat's cheese usually comes from abroad. Taste the distinctively pure, mild and surprising flavour of goat's cheese. In our range, we have two delicious creamy goat's cheeses: with Italian herbs and rosemary and thyme. These two are delicious on bread, in salads or as an addition to a cheeseboard.
Characteristics of goat's cheese
Fresh goat's milk has a limited shelf life so it is often processed into cheese. Once processed into cheese, it has a longer shelf life, which was especially advantageous in the past. By making cheese from goat's milk, the valuable minerals and vitamins are preserved and the milk does not spoil as quickly.
Goat's cheese is also easier to digest than cheese from cow's milk. This is because the fatty acid molecules in goat's cheese are smaller, which the body can process better.
