Home-made Boursin Cheese

[rodentraiser]

Y'all know the little packages of Boursin cheese you get in the stores in that little foil wrapper that costs $6 for 3oz? Well, I found a recipe for Bousin cheese today and made it tonight. I'd gone to Safeway and gotten a French Baguette and decided to try making this instead of buying the cheese. The recipe calls for 14oz of cream cheese but I didn't have any idea what to do with the remaining 2oz, so I just used two 8oz paks and added a little extra of everything else.

Let me tell you, this stuff is delicious. Tomorrow I'm going to be eating home-made Boursin cheese on French bread all day.

Here is the link to the recipe:

Boursin cheese is soft, creamy, and bursting with herbal flavor. You can use it as a dip or to enhance other dishes like pasta and soup!

Oh, I would cut back on the garlic powder a little.

Homemade Boursinoid is good stuff. I find that the texture of Boursin is a little drier and crumblier than cream cheese. Sometimes it is easier to deal with homemade stuff.

I have made it with cream cheese and I have also made it with homemade quark.
