PekingeseLady Posted January 23, 2015 #1 Share Posted January 23, 2015 OK, I have never heard of goat cheese soufflé. Can someone help tell me what this is, how it taste, like what it compares too. Flavor and texture. I'm scared to order it, anything with the word goat in it just seems wrong. :eek:;):D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canadarocks Posted January 23, 2015 #5 Share Posted January 23, 2015 I had read nothing but great things about them and I LOVE goat cheese (kind of creamy and tangy at the same time). Tried one on the Emerald this year and I wasn't impressed. But maybe I just got a "bad" one. I plan on trying one again on the Royal next month! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PekingeseLady Posted January 23, 2015 Author #6 Share Posted January 23, 2015 OK, but is it bland, sweet, spicy. Cheesie, mild, sharp. I will try it just trying to prepare my taste buds, lol Like does it taste like Oatmeal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hpeabody Posted January 23, 2015 #8 Share Posted January 23, 2015 My favorite appetizer on Princess. It is not spicy, It is nothing like oatmeal. It is soft and mildly cheesy. Kind of a loose quiche texture with the melted cheese/sauce surrounding it, but no additional ingredients in it. Hard to describe the flavor. DO TRY IT!

shredie Posted January 23, 2015 #9 Share Posted January 23, 2015 It's very rich. Almost too rich. But it's good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rdsqrl Posted January 23, 2015 #12 Share Posted January 23, 2015 OK, but is it bland, sweet, spicy. Cheesie, mild, sharp. I will try it just trying to prepare my taste buds, lol Like does it taste like Oatmeal? Soft but firm consistency (the comparison above to quiche is pretty close but not quite as solid); tangy yet smooth flavour -- definitely "cheese" but not sharp like cheddar or smelly like blue/roquefort. Deceptively easy to eat yet very rich and satiating. I will admit to not really liking goat cheese on other things (it's very popular in these parts on salads or a topping at our favourite local gourmet pizza place). However, the goat cheese souffle does not have the same (*searching for an adjective that won't put you off . . . *) "strident" flavour. I was loathe to order it myself until I read rave after rave here; I'm so glad I did. Definitely try it: it's free, after all, and you can always order a replacement starter if you find you don't care for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HRPro Posted January 23, 2015 #14 Share Posted January 23, 2015 One of my favorites--do order it. I predict that you'll love it if you enjoy creamy, cheesy, rich appetizers. It's truly delicious! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K-Roo-Zers Posted January 23, 2015 #15 Share Posted January 23, 2015 One of my favorites--do order it. I predict that you'll love it if you enjoy creamy, cheesy, rich appetizers. It's truly delicious! Couldn't agree more! Very decadent and delicious, but really rich. Certainly worth trying! I am lactose intolerant, but always take a tablet before I eat it as it is one of my favourites. Hope you enjoy it. Nicki Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boatingmom Posted January 23, 2015 #17 Share Posted January 23, 2015 We have a goat farm here on the north fork of Long Island. I find goat cheese a little like strong feta. A little crumbly, tangy, and slightly pungent or gamey. Its good but I prefer it with and accompaniment. Not by itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jagsfan Posted January 23, 2015 #20 Share Posted January 23, 2015 I've been a big fan of goat cheese for years. I keep it in my cheese drawer to add to salads and to top pizza with. It is crumbly and a little sharp, not smelly. Goat cheese soufflé is on most Princess menus, and one of the things I look forward to. It's really rich, though. I can eat 2 orders of escargot or smoked duck breast, but only one goat cheese soufflé. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seamwoman Posted January 23, 2015 #21 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Try it! Goat cheese is lower in fat than most cheeses but not sure with this preparation. IF you don't like it get something else. I'd be happy with the soufflé, salad and dessert! Karen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruisin' Chick Posted January 24, 2015 #24 Share Posted January 24, 2015 You can get feta cheese at your grocery store and try it out. We have been keeping some in our fridge for the past year or two (the reduced fat type) for adding to salads, macaroni casserole, etc. The goat cheese souffle will taste similar. As someone said, you can order it to try. If you don't like it, you don't have to finish it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rpcv77 Posted January 24, 2015 #25 Share Posted January 24, 2015 No! Feta and goat cheese do not taste the same, though I do love both. Feta is saltier and less creamy. Goat cheese has a nice tang to it but doesn't taste cheesy in the same way cheddar or Swiss do. I have had the goat cheese soufflé once and found it a bit bland, lacking the characteristic tanginess. I will give it a second chance on my next cruise :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
