Goat Cheese Taler
Goat cheese taler with olive-tomato tapenade for the party buffet: Goat cheese contains less lactose and is therefore better tolerated.
Ingredients
- 1 tsp fennel seeds
- 1 dried chili pepper
- 1 sprig rosemary
- 1 Organic lemon
- 160 g goat cheese taler (4 talers)
- 100 ml olive oil
- 150 g whole grain ciabatta (or whole grain baguette)
- 1 Garlic clove
- 100 g black olives
- 40 g capers (jar, drained)

- 1 sprig thyme
Instructions
-
1.
Crush the fennel and chili pepper in a mortar.

Wash the rosemary, shake off excess water, pluck the needles and roughly chop. Rinse the lemon hot, dry it, then finely grate the zest.

3.
Place all prepared ingredients with the goat cheese taler into a clean sealable jar.
-
4.
Fill with olive oil until the cheese is covered. Seal the jar. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 days. Warm to room temperature before serving.

Slice the bread very thinly. Roast the slices in a preheated oven at 200 °C (180 °C fan, gas level 3) until crisp and golden.

Peel the garlic clove, halve it, and rub the cut surfaces onto the bread slices.

For the tapenade, pit the olives. Chop the olives and capers.

Crush the anchovy fillet with a pinch of salt.

9.
Drain the sun‑dried tomatoes, reserving the oil. Dice the tomatoes very finely.

Remove thyme leaves and finely chop them. Mix everything in a small bowl to form a tapenade. Squeeze 1 tsp lemon juice from the lemon.

Stir the lemon juice with 1 tbsp tomato oil into the tapenade. Spread this on the bread slices.

Take the goat cheese taler out of the seasoned oil, let it drain well. Place on a plate and serve with the bread slices. (The goat cheese taler can be kept up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator.)
