Rocamadour is
a soft textured cheese from France made with raw goat milk. The Rocamadour
cheese comes from Lot's department in the Midi-Pyrenees area of southeastern
France. At first, this cheese was named "Cabécou de Rocamadour".
When translated from
Provencal dialect it means "little cheese from goat's milk". After
getting the AOC label, the name of this cheese became "Rocamadour"
because the name "Cabécou" has been commonly used. This cheese can be
enjoyed at different stages of maturity.
The young Rocamadour cheese
is matured for one to two weeks and has a slightly acidic aroma and flavor like
peanuts. During the ripening process takes place, forming a thin skin on the
cheese. The color of the skin is initially white and then becomes brown or
yellow.
