Make it at once sir. It will change your life. (Drizzle with honey at the end).
It sounds good and I will give it a try. Any food is meant to be experimented with otherwise how would we come up with some of the best foods. One food that comes to mind is fish n brews...OK that may not be a good example but their is tripe

What about Italian food? They don't use goats cheese I think.

Splendid sir. For the base, 200 grams of flour (00) a teaspoon of yeast, a teaspoon of salt and half a teaspoon of sugar. Add a tablespoon of olive oil and 120ml of hot water and bring together with a wooden spoon. Knead for 5 minutes and then cover with a bowl and allow to prove for an hour.
Roll out to a decent size and add a tomato base. (I tend to add a little water to a few tablespoons of tomato paste and mix in some herbs before spreading onto the dough). Slice up a couple of boiled eggs, and scatter on plenty of goats cheese and half a red onion. Put into a preheated very hot oven for about 12 minutes. (Drizzle on a small amount of honey before serving). Enjoy.

I make this at least once a month.

Great. Make sure you roll it out nice and thin. (At least the size of a dinner plate).

Nummy!
That sounds like something wifey might be encouraged to make as soon as this weekend.
Sounds like an English version of focaccia. πŸ™‚

Oh yes!
We have quite a few "formaggio di capra" recipes.
We haven't used it in quite some time however.
Mostly because I prefer fresh bufala mozzarella or parmigiano reggiano.

But I do remember my mother making a wonderful gnocchi dish with goat cheese.

Adding the boiled eggs is my own adaption, but works surprisingly well I think on pizza. (Meat eaters could replace it with ham if preferred).

If your wife is persuadable, let us know how it tastes.

How can anyone... ? Horrible smell, in line with Swedish 'surströmming' (fermented, soured Baltic herring). πŸ™‚
Goats cheese is also great on warm blinis topped with a sprinkle of pomegranates.

The only cheese I won't eat is sheep cheese. (And possibly any cheese made from elephant milk).

No offence, Rusty. Typos happen, spell checkers are imperfect, the thread goes on.
