There was an awesome restaurant in Los Angeles called Animal until pretty recently and they did a kind of fondue with this cheese with chorizo and caramelised onions served with toasted baguette, it was wonderful.

“**An Approachable Sheep’s Milk Cheese**”
“*Imported from France, Istara P’tit Basque Ewe’s Milk Cheese resembles Manchego but has a milder flavor. It is made with pure ewe’s milk from small herds of sheep that graze peacefully in the French Pyrenees Mountains.*”
*It is still cut by hand with a cheese maker’s loving touch. This gentle technique protects the subtle, tender flavors. Once formed into a basketweave mold, it is aged for 70 days and encased with wax for preservation.*
*It is sweet with a nutty finish and uniquely creamy for a semi-hard cheese. Enjoy this decadent cheese with crackers, bread, or just on its own.*
*Try it in a savory bruschetta, paired with tomatoes, olives, and rustic bread, or in a gourmet ham sandwich. P’tit Basque Fromage de Brebis was brought to the American market as a more approachable or accessible sheep’s milk cheese. In other words, no so funky and sheepy.*”
*Ewe* gotta be careful with these delicious sheep cheeses — they’re delicious but expensive. I know the type and the region. It really is a beautiful area with lush greenery because they’re close to the coast and there are plenty of mountains up that way also.

* Cheese Flavor: Nutty, bitey with sheep milk taste
* Meltiness: Great melt and stretch
* Overall: 9/10 a slightly picante cheese with some nutty flavors. Great on grilled cheese or on a charcuterie board
* 19 days left!!!
