I really love goat cheese and Humboldt Fog is lovely goat cheese. I wanted to like the cheese with this bread more than I did, but I would have preferred a slightly sweeter yeast bread than this. The recipe includes 1/3 cup of shallots and I found the flavor of the bread a little too onion-y which I thought competed with rather than complementing the cheese. Also, I thought the recipe needed a bit more salt to bring out the flavor, as well as more liquid as it was a bit dry.
If I make this again (although there are enough walnut bread recipes out there that I may just move on to another recipe), I will omit the onions entirely, add some sugar or maybe honey, and throw in some dried cranberries.
