3 Cheese
and Herbs Dip

The first thing that is required in this recipe is the combination of cheeses: requeson, goat cheese and parmesan. The requeson is mild and delicate, the goat cheese is a little stronger and creamy and the parmesan is powerful and dry but it provides a fruity touch that combines in a delicious way with the other cheeses.

On the herbs’ side is the chives, tarragon and parsley. The combination of these herbs gives freshness, sweetness and an aniseed touch to the dip – they also aromatize it and fill it with textures.

As you can see the result is a sensational dip, that can be used to eat with your favorite snacks. It could also be used to put to a tasty baked potato.
