From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Goat's cheese is at its best in spring. Fresh, clean and sweet, it is lovely just on its own, served on toast for breakfast or spooned through simple salads in which its flavour can really shine. The sweet young garlic is a perfect accompaniment.
1 head of radicchio, outer leaves discarded, leaving only the inner core of the smaller leaves
Salt and pepper
The juice of half a lemon
4 tbsp mild-tasting extra-virgin olive oil
The zest of one lemon
8 roasted heads of garlic
200g/7oz very fresh goat's curd
Break up the leaves of the radicchio and rinse well under cold running water.
Pat dry, place in a bowl and season with salt and pepper.
Squeeze over the lemon juice and add the olive oil and lemon zest.
Toss together lightly with your fingertips.
Arrange on a plate, then lay the garlic on top and crumble over the goat's curd. Serve immediately.
