What bread or cracker do YOU eat with goat cheese?
What do you eat with goat cheese? You specifically.
I'm in NYC in case anyone wants to recommend a specific store/bakery.

I like to roll the goat cheese in parsley, salt and pepper and spread it on a piece of baguette. Nice glass of wine, good movie, nice night!

I enjoy it sliced and rolled in a bread panko bread crumb and finely chopped macadamia nut mixture and then fried till it’s crispy and served with a fresh Olive Tapenade. Sort of a Goat Cheese An Crute you can say.

Goat cheese is my all-time favorite. I like to eat it on slices of fresh crusty baguette. Sometimes I like to pair it with some pate and cornichons, but usually I like it solo.

Depends on what kind of goat cheese it is.

wow ya'll are so fancy with goat cheese I feel left out. :-( I usually just spread some on black pepper water crackers and add a tiny dab of fig preserves.

I like it on grilled rosemary and olive oil bread with some Arugula and marinated red pepper.

i like it on a toasted piece of pita bread with a tomatillo salsa.

ANYTHING. Goat cheese is always good anytime, anywhere, on absolutely anything. Having said that, simplicity is best sometimes--just a piece of baguette for me.

Toasted baguette with just about everything. The crunchier the crust, the better.

Any whole wheat bread will do it for me... baguette is specially nice. Whole wheat pita is good too... top with grilled vegetables and you have the best sandwich.

Thanks everyone. You also just made me very hungry.

I try not to eat soft goat cheese any time, any where! It's a texture thing. Like firm goat cheese on water biscuits or almost any kind of plain cracker.

In an ideal world, on a lightly toasted slice of La Brea Bakery fruit and nut loaf.
But, if you aren't able to get to LA, anything will do, but I do prefer bread to crackers for some reason. I do love my goat cheese.

If it's fresh goat cheese, my favourite is toasted baguette and topped with honey and fresh ground black or long pepper.
If it's aged goat cheese I don't mess around with it and just eat it with a good rustic French bread.

in a panini. on any bread. i usually use my panini press to toast up the bread so it has a crackly-ness to compliment the creamy, tangy nature of the goat cheese. (i also 'grill' eggplant slices with my panini press to go with it....but i'm not sure if that's ethically right or safe >> )

I mix in some olive oil, garlic, and Penzey's Mural of Flavor seasoning blend and smear it on sliced baguette. Sometimes I toast it (with cheese on.)
I've tried the famed 'on figs' but love them more separately.

On a baguette. Maybe with a little olive oil and fresh herbs.
@aliceblue, I share your pain. I recently tried to stuff dates with goat cheese and it was awful. Too sweet and too salty. I think that combo is best in small doses on something else like pastry.

i like fresh goat cheese on something thin and crispy.....
although a baguette will always do the trick.

@aliceblue: I'll try your tip. I actually have Mural of Flavor.
QueenAlli at 11:14PM on 09/08/09
@cyberroo, yes! I've eaten it on raisin bread (homemade), too. Mostly baguettes, though, but we've been known to dip pretzel rods into it when we're hard up.

on these amazing red wine crackers. they're kind of sweet and crumbly, like shortbread and they are amazing with goat cheese. or any cheese really.
