1 serving
600 minutes
The 'Philadelphia' cheese with Provençal herbs is a delicate and aromatic treat with French charm. Its history is linked to the search for the perfect creamy taste that can be complemented by the noble notes of Provençal herbs. It is made from kefir, making it airy and light, while natural spices give it an exquisite aroma of Mediterranean fields. The cheese's flavor is soft and creamy with subtle herbal undertones that unfold gradually. It is ideal for spreading on baguettes, as an addition to a wine platter, or as an ingredient for refined appetizers. Its presentation at the table invariably evokes admiration, and the harmony of flavors makes it a versatile addition to any meal.
