The Truffle in 2.0 mode

Behind this super sexy food collab, the big names of French artisans: the Toulouse cheese maker Olivier Chavanne and the pastry chef everyone is talking about François Daubinet , exclusively for Petrossian . It gives a creation halfway between refiner cheese and dessert, which works the texture of truffled brie in a composition worthy of a cloud ...

The Pavé Toulousain has it all

 

It's like the new gold bar for dairy products. A 700g pavé served in a sublime wooden box, a pure creation of François Bourgon from Fromagerie Xavier in Toulouse , who joined forces with the producer in Aveyron to create this “very farmy, very earthy and melting cheese with superb earthy aromas. Its fairly dry paste and its long ripening make it a cow's cheese with real farm style ”, explains Delphine Plisson , who is fond of it.

Stylish advice: follow the tips of Delphine who sells it at Maison Plisson : “ Toulouse pavé is eaten in very thin slices. We first eat the dough before attacking the crust, to enjoy with a rye pie.

Each blue has a real typicity, an almost unique taste since there are nearly 1000 kinds of strains of penicillium roqueforti : “ Ours works very well because we find a smooth and slightly buttery taste at the level of the flower ”.
