Lemon Tree Goat Cheese
- Goat Cheese Spread
- 5-6 slices lemon confit, chopped finely
- 5 ounces fresh chevre
- 3 tablespoons chopped chives or any other fresh herb or combination of herbs
- salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
- goat's milk yogurt, as needed
- lemon confit
- 3-4 meyer lemons, washed well
- olive oil, enough to cover lemons in a pan
- Combine all ingredients except the yogurt in a bowl, and mix well. By the spoonful, add the yogurt, stirring well until you've reached a spreadable consistency.
- Trim the ends from the meyer lemons and cut into very thin slices. Put in a pan and cover with olive oil. Heat to a bare simmer, and turn down to the lowest possible heat for an hour, stirring every so often. If there's a lot of excess oil, saute something in it, or save it in a separate jar from the lemons to use for salad dressings or what not. If there's not much extra, you can put the whole thing in the same jar.
