Touraine" comes from several regions : Saint Maure en Touraine, Indre et Loire and
Indre. .In the middle Age, it was already one of the favorite cheeses of the powerfull people and good tables still present it nowadays. .The most striking point is the fact that a straw is included in it, more to enable a fast drying and to strenghten it, rather than to allow the cheese to fly when wind is blowing (as an amazing legends says, speaking about its heavy weight for a goat cheese) |
