**Boursin Cheese: A Gourmet Delight You Can Make at Home**

Boursin cheese is a soft, creamy cheese with a rich, garlicky flavor that originated in Normandy, France. It is made from a blend of cow's milk, cream, and herbs, and its flavor profile ranges from mild to tangy, depending on the variety. Boursin cheese is a versatile ingredient that can be used in a variety of dishes, from appetizers to main courses to desserts. It can be spread on crackers or bread, used as a filling for sandwiches or wraps, or melted and drizzled over roasted vegetables or pasta. This article provides recipes for three different types of Boursin cheese: classic, garlic and herb, and sun-dried tomato. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create your own homemade Boursin cheese that is just as delicious as the store-bought variety.

Let's cook with our recipes!

GARLIC HERB CHEESE (COPYCAT BOURSIN) RECIPE



Garlic Herb Cheese (Copycat Boursin) Recipe image

If you've been following my recipes, you'll know that I may be responsible for Boursin being packed into your fridge. Once I discovered this French-style garlic herb cheese went way beyond the charcuterie board and was such a special ingredient for cooking, I started using it in many of my recipes. And the crowd went wild. Now you'll save on costs and make something so comparable, you'd swear it was the same thing.

Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 8-ounce bricks of cream cheese, at room temperature so it's softened (see Jeffrey's Tips)
2 sticks (8 ounces) salted (or unsalted) butter, at room temperature so it's softened (see Jeffrey's Tips)
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
3 cloves (1 tablespoon) garlic, minced or pressed
1 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
1 teaspoon dried dill weed
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Steps:

  • Add all the ingredients to a large mixing bowl. Take a silicone, rubber or wooden mixing spoon or spatula and mix together, folding it over until well combined with even seasoning distribution. (NOTE: You can also use a hand mixer if that's easier but I find that familiar consistency is best achieved when mixed by hand.)
  • Once done, you can either serve immediately with crackers or in a recipe (like my Sausage & Shells) or store for later. If storing for later, keep the cheese in the large mixing bowl with a lid on top or divide into 4-5 small ramekins for pre-measured portions (each ramekin will be equivalent to about one 5.2-ounce package of Boursin). Cover with plastic wrap if placing in the fridge where it will last up to a month.
