Fresh goat cheese is a simple, satisfying cheese with a flavor that explodes when toasted under the broiler or with a portable kitchen torch. It is especially wonderful in the summer as an ingredient because it is so light and adds loft to quiches or cheesecake. Lower in calories and cholesterol than cream cheese, it can be used in any dish calling for cream cheese. The trick is to not overwork it or you will lose the light texture that comes from carefully ladling the curd.
