It's a fresh goat curd that is best eaten soon after purchase. We use this cheese in everything - for breakfast on toast, to pizza and pastas, lunchtime salads, and even on a baked spud. As it is unsalted, it can be used in sweet dishes, such as cakes, tarts and muffins. Check out our recipes page if you need some inspiration. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59883c581e5b6cba5275d113/1593003921179-O1W77L0WT6FPPRQO66H5/Bloom_square_5010.jpg Our Cheeses - Bloom This cheese features a white, bloomy rind, which encases the soft, creamy textured cheese. It’s similar to a camembert, is much cleaner in flavour and whiter. The mould and different cultures produce a unique and mild flavour, which alters as it matures. It should be served at room temperature, so make sure you pull it out of the fridge at least an hour before serving. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59883c581e5b6cba5275d113/1593004050413-F0258O9ZC728FJL3IY8O/Tongola_5024square.jpg Our Cheeses - Zoé This is a fresh lactic curd cheese, with an aroma of a ripened cheese. The centre is creamy white encased in a smooth rind that is wrinkly (you really need to see it to understand). Although it is only matured for 7-10 days, it packs a flavour punch, a "geotrichum bomb". Best served at room temperature. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59883c581e5b6cba5275d113/1593004281128-VGX55O2ZXBT1MUUVYI2B/Tongola_5090blacks.jpg Our Cheeses - Big B The Big B is a cooked curd, semi-hard, washed rind cheese (what a mouthful!), that is cared for daily to help it mature into a unique alpine-style cheese. It develops an aromatic flavour and smooth texture, reminiscent of the earth and pasture on which the goats forage. It’s a large round cheese weighing 800g-1kg that matures for at least 3 months and can then be hand-cut into wedges. Because this cheese matures over a long period of time, it develops a more complex, sublime flavours. https://www.tongola.com.au/about-us daily 0.75 2020-06-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59883c581e5b6cba5275d113/1593335425161-9FQM84QZHG4CG415FROF/IMG_7314.JPG Our Story https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59883c581e5b6cba5275d113/1503398849354-B8QH7DIR8HG24A3RZ172/Tongola+in+the+meadow.jpg Our Story A Swiss Tongola https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59883c581e5b6cba5275d113/1503398430921-HWNO7UYSHTFWZSIDB0NZ/Esther+milking+a+cow.jpg Our Story Esther milked the cows.... https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59883c581e5b6cba5275d113/1503398538406-CO2QTGJZKU8OS90JJ7SH/Esther+hooping+the+cheese.jpg Our Story ...and made the cheese. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59883c581e5b6cba5275d113/1503398683424-HD4QEX4QNFER2XV088JW/Mould+wall+1+%281%29.jpg Our Story Matured the wheels... https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59883c581e5b6cba5275d113/1503398778048-4ODH437OMUWXILT0OWUV/Taking+cheese+down+hill.jpg Our Story ...and Hans carried it downhill! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59883c581e5b6cba5275d113/1593340907052-SC2T7IF9J41S5KJLY2FO/Iain+and+Kate+Nov+2019.jpg Our Story Kate & Iain, and some of the girls, Nov 2019. https://www.tongola.com.au/our-partners daily 0.75 2026-01-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59883c581e5b6cba5275d113/1593342944548-F2T16UKBYQPUDK3T7WJW/Tongola_5041.jpg Where to buy https://www.tongola.com.au/contact-us daily 0.75 2020-10-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59883c581e5b6cba5275d113/1503223747965-ADYHGYDBI4DGBHUBHKDL/0R3A2399.jpg Contact Us https://www.tongola.com.au/recipes daily 0.75 2020-06-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59883c581e5b6cba5275d113/1503220544706-BAHW8FKRBB0BMAMNT80K/0R3A2446.jpg Recipes https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59883c581e5b6cba5275d113/1593345494663-SRTX2PCQ2J8DNBMUEJY3/428BBE45-1D4F-40F7-A756-46BC32C7F94A.JPG Recipes - Pizza!!!! So… I always seems to struggle making pizza dough. We’re a bit hopeless about being organised for dinner (unless it’s slow cooked goat or beef, then it gets started at about 9am). For years I’ve been making a dough that has yeast, that needs time to rise, etc, etc. Bah! It never works. Last night I tried a new technique. And it was a ripper! I’m not going back to attempt to be organised and make dough in advance EVER AGAIN. This recipe - so easy. It’s just flour, Curdy and a bit of water. I used about 2 cups of plain white supermarket flour, about 120-150g Curdy, and then enough water to make the consistency “right” - you know, stretchy but not too sticky. I used my KitchenAid. I love my KitchenAid. I wish they sponsored me (LOL). And then, when I was happy with it, I was able to immediately roll it out, so it was super thin (and that’s how we like it). I baked it on the pizza stone first (and flipped it over and baked it a little more) before adding the toppings. Seriously, it was too easy, and super good. This pizza pictured is of our crispy base, a simple tomato sauce, Fork It Farm spicy chorizo (and once you’ve had their chorizo, you won’t bother with anything else), mushrooms, slices of Zoé, a scattering of grated (cows’ milk) cheddar, and then some micro-coriander, from K&D Farm, plonked on after it was pulled from the oven. The other pizza win last night started the same (base with tomato sauce), Fork It Farm chorizo, dollops of Curdy, and again, a scattering of cheddar, with fresh baby rocket from the veggie patch put on top after being pulled from the oven. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59883c581e5b6cba5275d113/1585127305459-4GGFL1ZUURKD2BOKWH3P/Roast+Pumpkin+and+Curdy+Gnocchi Recipes - Roast Pumpkin and Curdy Gnocchi Fry off a packet of cooked gnocchi in butter and olive oil (we love Sirocco South’s pre-cooked gnocchi - it makes this recipe super quick and easy) When they are a little crispy add 2 cloves of chopped garlic, then 120g Curdy and turn off the stove. Add in some left over roasted pumpkin and torn basil leaves. Salt and Pepper to taste. Perfetto. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59883c581e5b6cba5275d113/1585042855643-KZ1ZPHHXT4KHLCDJMV9Q/Big+B+Barley+Bake Recipes - Big B Barley Bake 1 cup of barley (because no one can buy pasta or rice this week), 3 cups of water and 2 stock cubes a generous handful of ripe tomatoes +/- some passata (I had a little leftover, alternatively use 1 pureed tin of tomatoes) 1 brown onion, halved and then sliced 3 cups of chopped mushrooms (these are field mushies from the farm) Bake for about an hour in a slow oven (140 degrees) until the barley has puffed up and the liquid has reduced Take out of the oven, stir, place slices of BigB (and any leftover rind you have) on top, a few dollops of Curdy (if you have any), cracked black pepper and return to the oven until the cheese has melted Garnish with fresh herbs - pictured here with chives as Iain hates parsley! Serve with a side of veg, if you can be bothered! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59883c581e5b6cba5275d113/1503221530186-IQN26AN9I90UYVX658OW/Curdy+Pea+Pasta.jpg Recipes Tongola Curdy Pea Pasta https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59883c581e5b6cba5275d113/1503221466028-5RQHQCFQVMYGQ61Z6940/Curdy+Crouton+and+Pumpkin+Soup.jpg Recipes Pumpkin Soup with Curdy Crouton https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59883c581e5b6cba5275d113/1503221559642-JFOWNPVAU2VXD5HXX616/Curdy+Green+Soup.jpg Recipes Green Soup https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59883c581e5b6cba5275d113/1503221672102-7QMHH4U3GHTEIX22XBR7/Baked+Goats+Cheesecake.jpg Recipes Baked Goats Cheesecake https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59883c581e5b6cba5275d113/1503221491602-4NI1ARTDC4FGIITWUGDJ/Goats+Cheese+Pizza+and+CB+wine.jpg Recipes Pizza with Goats Cheese https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59883c581e5b6cba5275d113/1503221419500-YQW0U5L3DW6R0QAJG5WD/Goats+Cheese+Sandwich Recipes Add goats cheese to a sandwich https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59883c581e5b6cba5275d113/1503221441762-ABNQ2F9Z63PWA6XH29EW/Goats+cheese+Salad.jpg Recipes Lift your salad from ordinary to extraordinary https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59883c581e5b6cba5275d113/1519517121592-ZW93HSO0S2KAAUYLFY06/Tomato+and+Curdy+Pasta.jpg Recipes Tomato and Tongola Cheese Pasta https://www.tongola.com.au/buy-tongola-cheese daily 0.75 2020-04-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59883c581e5b6cba5275d113/1586040376614-S7FLJR60BY1MWGWQXY4B/Bloom+crop.jpg Buy Tongola Cheese https://www.tongola.com.au/buy-tongola-cheese/big-b-wedges monthly 0.5 2020-04-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59883c581e5b6cba5275d113/1586042452825-UL26BI28K2J4TW3J9X1A/Big+B.JPG Buy Tongola Cheese - Big B wedges https://www.tongola.com.au/buy-tongola-cheese/zo monthly 0.5 2020-04-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59883c581e5b6cba5275d113/1586042061406-HSALB92P4HRHR38TDZ39/0R3A2909+%281%29.jpg Buy Tongola Cheese - Zoé 100g https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59883c581e5b6cba5275d113/1586042213649-GCB641B4VI2GXGS77NEJ/Zoe%CC%80+with+olives.jpg Buy Tongola Cheese - Zoé 100g https://www.tongola.com.au/buy-tongola-cheese/curdy-125g monthly 0.5 2020-04-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59883c581e5b6cba5275d113/1586041326216-KSZPKWUZHVQBEIRRUZLM/IMG_8758.jpg Buy Tongola Cheese - Curdy 125g https://www.tongola.com.au/buy-tongola-cheese/bloom monthly 0.5 2020-04-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59883c581e5b6cba5275d113/1586041826214-2OQX01NBT062TRTX6HF4/Bloom+photo+workshop.jpeg Buy Tongola Cheese - Bloom approx 200g https://www.tongola.com.au/buy-tongola-cheese/capris monthly 0.5 2020-04-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59883c581e5b6cba5275d113/1586146023151-N1Y8ECQTBX6JLGRTMGSQ/DDF329DE-C2FA-452E-915F-14A619091BDE.JPG Buy Tongola Cheese - Capris 120g https://www.tongola.com.au/buy-tongola-cheese/curdy monthly 0.5 2020-04-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59883c581e5b6cba5275d113/1586038620263-68A3MKSAPONJANQ76OZL/F70C20D5-CFCC-4FF0-A91E-85DF70AA37C8.JPG Buy Tongola Cheese - Curdy 500g
