CERVELLE DE CANUT (HERBED CHEESE SPREAD)

The author Bill Buford spent years in Lyon, France, researching French cuisine for his book "Dirt." He picked up this recipe from a modern Lyonnaise bouchon, Le Bouchon des Filles. The simple, savory mixture of fromage blanc with shallots, garlic and other seasonings is a mainstay in Lyon, where it often appears with the cheese course. (Or it may be the cheese course.) The name means silk worker's brain, a mysterious reference to the days when silk weaving made Lyon rich. This version is set apart by its lavish use of fresh herbs.

Steps:

  • If using farm-fresh cheese, line a sieve with two layers of cheesecloth and place over a bowl. Add the fromage blanc and let it strain at room temperature for at least 3 to 4 hours to eliminate excess liquid.
  • Combine fromage blanc with all remaining ingredients in a food processor and blend until the shallots are finely chopped and the texture begins to resemble cottage cheese, about 30 seconds.
  • Empty into a bowl and whisk; season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve chilled; eat with a spoon or serve with baguette.

1 pound fresh, whole-milk, full-fat fromage blanc (ideally from a farm)
1 small shallot, peeled and roughly chopped
2 tablespoons chopped fresh herb leaves (such as dill, tarragon, chives, chervil and parsley)
1 1/2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon red wine vinegar
1/2 small garlic clove
3/4 teaspoon salt, plus more as needed
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper, plus more as needed

CERVELLE DE CANUT (FRENCH CREAM CHEESE SPREAD WITH WINE)

A French spread from the Burgundy region. The original recipe asks for quark, a German/French soft curd cheese, but it will work with cottage cheese as well. Serve the spread with fresh toast. The preparation time does not include the 4 hours needed to strain the cottage cheese.
