RECIPE NOTES
To help the goat cheese appear smoother, you can take the extra time to prepare like this:
Take a square piece of wax paper that's at least double the size of the plate you'll be using. Fold the wax paper in half. Cut out a circle. (If you open the wax paper, it's a double circle.)
Fold the wax paper. Spread goat cheese in a round circle on the wax paper. Flip up the other end over the goat cheese. Flatten with the palm of your hand or another plate. You now have a prettier, flat layer. Proceed with recipe
