7 steps

Ingredients

  • 1 teaspoon mixed red, black and white peppercorns, lightly crushed
  • 2 garlic cloves, peeled
  • 2 bay leaves, broken into pieces
  • About 3 ounces goat cheese (in a log)
  • 2 sprigs thyme
  • 2 sprigs rosemary
  • Extra virgin olive oil as needed

Directions

  1. 1
    Place the peppercorns, garlic cloves and bay leaves in a clean, sterilized wide-mouthed jar.
  2. 2
    Pour in a film of olive oil.
  3. 3
    Cut the goat cheese into rounds 1/2 inch thick (I get neat rounds using unflavored dental floss to cut through the cheese).
  4. 4
    Place one round in the jar and drizzle on some olive oil.
  5. 5
    Stack the remaining rounds, drizzling oil onto each round before topping with the next.
  6. 6
    Add the thyme and rosemary sprigs to the jar and pour in olive oil to cover the goat cheese rounds completely.
  7. 7
    Cover the jar and leave at room temperature for several hours, then refrigerate.
