I’m not sure when Boursin Spread became so popular, but as a child I can remember it being served with crackers and other nibbles in the 5 o’clock hour.  What I don’t recall was if my mom made it herself or bought it.  Flash forward 20 years and I’m certain my sister made it from scratch.  She has always been creative and confident in the kitchen.  I believe a bit of that has worn off on me.
