Foodie advice. I bought some plain goat cheese at a bargain a week ago. Been using recipes from the internbunny. And they are OK, but I feel like I'm not taking full advantage of the ingredient. That is most of recipes I've used kind of drown the cheese. And I understand the impulse, because undiluted the flavor is too strong for me. But the thing is it is (to me) basically a good flavor - just need to be complemented and made less strong, not buried. I don't know quite how to explain what I'm looking for, but can anyone suggest something that works with and complements the flavor of the goat cheese rather than fighting it?

Get some fresh figs (if you can), cut them in half, smear a bit of goat cheese on the cut side, and wrap the whole thing in a slice of prosciutto. Place these on a baking sheet and broil for about 3-4 minutes, or until the prosciutto is slightly crispy.
YUM!

tomato.
oranges too.
the sweet / acidic match with the earthier taste of the goat cheese works.
One of my friends does a slice of tomato, a slice of goat cheese and a leaf a basil.
I like goat cheese bits in a spinach salad with toamtoes and orange bits in the salad.
or toasted baguette spread with goat cheese and topped with tomato or orange.

For a cover letter, is it appropriate to address the hiring manager if you know his or her name, or should it always be "To Whom It May Concern"?

Now tagless for your comfort.
I use goat cheese for pasta sauce--a touch of butter, garlic, 1/4 cup cream and melt the goat cheese in it.
Yeah, I'm a health nut.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I love to put a hunk of goat cheese in a shallow dish with some tomato sauce, bake it until the goat cheese is bubbly and serve it with garlic bread. OK I stole the recipe from the restaurant I used to work at but it is delicious.
Also straight goat cheese is one of my favorite things to eat while flavor tripping on miracle berries. It tastes like cheesecake.
