St Agnes, Roman saint symbolising purity provides the name for this fresh white cheese
St Agnes is a delicious light cheese with a lemony tang, and makes an excellent contrast to some of the richer cheeses
It can also be used in salads as an alternative to mozzarella, or feta
A small St Agnes
placed on a crouton, sprinkled with olive oil and pine nuts and heated briefly
in the oven or under the grill and served on a bed of lettuce makes
a sumptuous starter
