Sat, 04 Oct 2008 07:23:13 +0000 http://mrjeffmccarthy.com/2008/03/05/the-game/#comment-585 [...] This is certainly my most exhaustive Photoshop effort to date.  This silly thing took at least five times as long to make as the gnocchi, and isn’t half as delicious.  For this recipe I used Ile de France goat cheese, the second installment of product they wanted me to eat and write about.  The last cheese they sent me I basically ate straight, so I thought it better to cook with this one.  I chose gnocchi because I have always wanted to try it.  I’ve seen Perez and before him Arturo making these things three times a week  for the past eight months.  I had the process memorized just by seeing it done so many times.  I won’t include a detailed recipe because I’m quite sure there isn’t one.  The cheese had a creamy texture and showcased that distinctive goaty taste.  The flavor carried through to the gnocchi, and was exceptional.  I liked this cheese better than the last one they sent, it had a little more personality.  I also found the packaging more pleasing, this time with a picture of a goat rather than a picture of cheese.  Still a bit flashy for me but a step in the right direction.  This company is bringing some great cheese into the country.  I hope some more of it finds its way to my doorstep.  Sorry about the penis humor, faithful readers, but I gotta be me.
