Showcasing the fresh milk and green grass of Appalachian pastures, Tanasi Tomme is a perfect spring cheese.

A clean, rich-tasting raw-milk goat cheese, Tanasi's notes of hay, nuts and butterscotch capture the terroir of the Tennessee hills where Bonnie Blue Farm grazes their herd.

A perfect pairing:

We’ve selected Rustic Bakery’s Pan Forte Crostini as an accompaniment. Hand-made with organic Oregon hazelnuts and golden sultana raisins, plus a pinch of coriander and orange zest, they're a crisp and earthy companion to Tanasi Tomme's fresh flavor.

So simple and so good. Chef Alex Seidel uses potatoes grown on his farm; purchase yours from the farmers market if possible, for the best flavor. The earthiness of the potatoes paired with the oniony ramps and pungent, creamy Taleggio is an unbeatable combination. Be sure to have the cheese brought up to room temperature before using, says Seidel; otherwise, “you’ll have to melt it in the oven and the cheese will lose its textural integrity.”
