Hi
Escuse my ignorance, but what is “Boursin cheese”? Have never heard of it here in RSA.
Thks
Boursin is a brand of cheese from (http://www.boursincheese.com/). Boursin is made by Bel Brands USA, a subsidiary of Fromageries Bel, a family-owned cheese maker headquartered in Paris, France. It is available from Amazon.com.
Hi Conrad –
You can actually make this at home if you have the ingredients, search online for homemade boursin cheese and you’ll find a recipe!
Do you suppose other soft deli cheeses would work similarly? (I’m thinking Laughing Cow, for example)
=^..^=
Boursin and Laughing Cow are NOT very similar. Boursin has more of a whipped cream cheese texture, with herbs added. You could probably substitute garlic & herb spreadable cream cheese by Philadelphia, but Boursin is much nicer as it has a melt in your mouth texture (and a bit pricier, at least where I live).
Can you replace olive oil in all recipes that use butter?
