bibeleskaes

About bibeleskaes

Bibeleskaes is a traditional Alsatian preparation of seasoned fromage blanc. This profile fixes a savoury garlic, shallot and chive version and keeps potatoes and charcuterie as separate accompaniments.

Fresh cultured cheese and crème fraîche give a clean dairy tang, while shallot, garlic and chives add crisp allium and herbal notes.

The mixture is cool, white and spoonable, with flecks of green chive and finely chopped aromatics throughout.
