  • Vare goat cheese and Crab, by Chef Lippe

    Vare Goat Cheese and King Crab Vare Goat and King Crab - By Chef Lippe. One of Carmen & Lola's favorite chefs.

    King Crab meets Mr. Goat a match made in heaven!  By Chef Lippe

    Crab meat is one of my favorites and so I combined it with a new favorite. Vare goat cheese from Asturia Spain. This is a small Artisan produce cheese where the family only makes about 200 cheese a week. It is a pasteurized cheese steeped in brine for 12 to 24 hours, then aged for 40 to 50 days. This is when the cheese develops its natural rind richly coated with gray white molds.The cheese is smooth, firm and dense in texture and the flavor is herbaceous and sweet with just enough salt to make it balanced and mellow as a whole. The combination of the cheese with the crab is quite addictive!

    So I'll explain. After fathering a small human who from time to time needs to be rescued from a certain scrape or an animated villain; burned food (garlic and everything else) becomes very common. While I was cleaning this foul smelling garlic cinders and the black tar of what was very good olive oil I started thinking: Overheating olive oil -- is this dangerous? Continue reading
