Some of the nation's finest goat cheese is produced on an 80-acre farm in Greenville, Indiana. From the rich goat milk of a 500-strong herd comes Capriole cheeses, which have grabbed honors at national competitions and impressed maitre fromagers for their texture and distinctive, rich taste.
For the past 20 years, Capriole has been the all-consuming work and love of Judy Schad, milkmaid and cheese mogul. "What limestone does for Kentucky bourbon, it also does for my goat milk," Judy says. "The limestone base makes for sweet grasses, alfalfa and clover -- and more flavorful cheese."
In Goat Cheese and Roasted Beet Salad (left), the intense flavor of beets blends with goat cheese. "You have to love that earthy, rich flavor" of beets, says Judy. "If so, you'll find it was simply meant to pair with goat cheese."
