    Strawberry and fresh Thyme Jam for Goat Cheese, p. 62 This is a savory jam intended to be served with fresh goat cheese. Chester offers a similar recipe in his first book (which I love), the other one featuring tomatoes instead of strawberries. Made this today using up the odd bits of honey I had left in my cupboard from past seasons, probably a little shy of 1/2 what was suggested for the recipe. To compensate, I 1/2ed the remaining ingredients and popped this in the fridge for future use. On its own, it is not quite sweet and you can taste the lemon. Served it last night alongside robiola, brie and triple cream. It was a wonderful combination.

Publishers Text

The Cheesemonger's Seasons is a collection of 90 recipes organised by season spring, summer, autumn and winter for cooking cheese-centric dishes that co-star peak-season fruits and vegetables. Recipes range from appetizers to desserts, from simple salads to homemade pastas, many are vegetarian (or can be made so), and all are written in Chester Hastings friendly, casual style. The Cheesemonger's Seasons is a follow-up to The Cheesemonger's Kitchen. Its format is identical and its design complementary, creating an unofficial two-volume series. The ninety recipes range from super-simple to moderately advanced and produce elegant results that put equal emphasis on the cheese and best-quality produce.
