Wikipedia

Fromage blanc

Fromage blanc (UK: ; French pronunciation: ​[fʁɔmaʒ blɑ̃]; also known as maquée) is a fresh cheese originating from the north of France and southern Belgium. The name means "white cheese" in French. Fromage frais ("fresh cheese") differs from fromage blanc in that, according to French legislation, fromage frais must contain live cultures when sold, whereas with fromage blanc, fermentation has been halted.

Fromage blanc is a creamy soft cheese made with whole or skimmed milk and cream. It is a semi-fluid, creamy, viscous paste. Pure fromage blanc is virtually fat free, but cream is frequently added to improve the flavour, which also increases the fat content, frequently to as high as 8% of total weight.

Fromage blanc can be served either as a dessert similar to yogurt, frequently with added fruit, spread on bread, usually over or under jam, or used in savoury dishes. In many Western countries, fromage blanc is sold in supermarkets alongside yogurts.

Examples of use of fromage frais
1. Thousands of whole cheeses made of milk from cows, goats, and sheep were packed high on shelves, along with boxes of yogurt, fromage frais (a creamy soft cheese often flavored with fruit or herbs and spices), and other dairy products.
2. These days we‘re all into "super–foods". Your breakfast should consist of fromage frais, topped with fresh berries, and served on an oaten biscuit. (And Mr Oaten‘s chief drum–banger is fellow MP Lembit Opik, whose name might be thought to sound like a brand of organic yoghurt.
