Simply Recipes / Boursin
Its fresh and tangyperfect on so many things.
It kind of slaps you in the face with garlic flavor, which is the main appeal for me.
It’s also a really versatile flavor that goes with practically anything savory.

Boursin was always a treat when shopping with my mom and sister.
Splurging on a box of Boursin became a tradition that followed me into college and adulthood, they shared.

I find it so well-balanced, with the garlic not overly intense.
The herbs add a nice depth, while the sweet creaminess of the cheese itself rounds it all out.
