    English Goat's Cheese and Basil Rigatoni

    Capricorn English Goats Cheese is available both prepacked and from the Cheese Service Counter. It has a soft texture and subtle flavour that complements the warm spiciness of Peppadew sweet piquanté peppers, which can be found on the grocery shelves. Here the peppers and cheese are combined with pasta for a stylish supper dish.
