Brousse

Brousse is a traditional French dessert from the Provence region, made by mixing ripe, sweetened fresh cheese (like ricotta or farmer’s cheese) with sugar, eggs, and sometimes flavorings like vanilla or lemon zest. It has a creamy, smooth texture and is typically served chilled. Brousse can be enjoyed on its own, used as a filling for pastries, or incorporated into other desserts. Its delicate flavor highlights the natural sweetness of the cheese and ingredients, making it a versatile and refreshing treat rooted in Provençal culinary traditions.
