NOTES : * Boursin cheese is a spreadable garlic and herb cheese. Boursin Poivre
contains a lot of black pepper for those who like pepper. Boursin is
available in many grocery stores but can almost certainly be found in
higher quality produce and specialty stores. If Boursin or Boursin Poivre
cann
ot be found, Alouette can be used as a substitute although it is not as high
q
uality as Boursin, in my opinion.
