If you like fresh goat cheese, this is destined to become one of your favorite snacks or appetizers. It's so easy to make, so delicious and so versatile. A blend of dried thyme, parsley, marjoram, tarragon, fennel and lavender is the perfect flavor combination for goat cheese.
You can, however, make this same recipe using almost any blend of spices that you like. Just make sure to serve a crusty loaf of bread alongside the goat cheese to mop up all the delicious cheese and olive oil.

Fresh goat cheese is so soft that it can be difficult to slice. To make slicing easier, try these tricks:

• Make sure the goat cheese is cold and hasn't been warming up on the counter. Don't freeze the cheese, but you can put it in the freezer for 20 minutes or so before slicing.
• Wipe your knife clean between each slice
• Use (unflavored) dental floss instead of a knife. Place the floss under the log and criss-cross the floss over the top of the log to slice it.
