In the heart of the Massif de l’Etoile, goats are the stars of the region. They give a bush, goat’s cheese, unctuous and light which is the pride of the Provençals. It all starts in the hills of Septèmes-les-Vallons (Bouches-du-Rhone). The goats of Rove walk there and feed there for at least six hours a day.They need to eat thyme, rosemary, and then they have the right to a little bit of herbs for dessert“, details Julie Dupont Dusaussoygoatherd.

Milking takes place twice a day. Once collected, the milk is heated to 90°. After cooling for a few minutes, add a small amount of white vinegar. Brewing is done by hand. The bush of Rove sells for between 1.30 euro and 1.50 euro per cone. The small quantities produced make it a rare dish, highly prized by consumers and restaurateurs in the region. A chef to cook likes to prepare this cheese in all possible variations. On the menu this game: a panna cotta in the bush of the Rove.
