Agour sheep petit Agour with Piment d’Espelette 750g
Agour’s French Basque sheep’s cheese is renowned for its creamy texture and peppery flavour. This raw milk cheese is made from pasteurised sheep’s milk, and its paste has a firm texture with red flecks, thanks to the Espelette pepper puree added directly to it.
The Piment d’Espelette pepper, which is not a hot chili pepper, gives a warm, smoky fruitiness to this cheese. This pepper has AOP status, meaning it can only be harvested from a pepper grown in the town of Espelette in the Basque region of France.
The cheese’s versatile tommette format, characterised by its round shape reminiscent of a small wheel, allows for various serving options. It can be paired with sliced Bayonne ham and bread for a simple yet generous aperitif or shaved onto vegetables and salads. Each cheese undergoes 2 to 4 months of refining, ensuring a nuanced flavour profile.
Looking to create intricate cheese curls and rosettes from your sheep tommette? Boska offers a range of cheese curlers designed for this purpose. Perfect for any occasion or party, these tools make crafting cheese curls effortless.
Agour and Baillet, though distinct, share a common mission of preserving Basque culinary heritage. Agour’s artisan cheeses and Baillet’s charcuterie and cured meats complement each other, reflecting the rich flavours of the Basque-Chalossais region. Together, they uphold centuries-old traditions while embracing modern techniques, symbolising the collaborative spirit of the Basque country.
