Cheese
So, even though I am supposedly a cook, I do get lazy...
On my own, decided a glass of wine, crackers, bit of fruit, and a lovely cheese assortment sounded like an easy dinner. Favourites lying around today were: French Brie Wisconsin Cheddar (in this case the curds) Danish Havarti Smoked Gouda and a nice new addition... English White Stilton with Apricots (Trader Joe's btw) What are some of your favourites? |

Agreed nice white, creamy, crumbly Cheshire or Lancashire. IMHO you can only get the real deal in the said counties.

Re: Cheese
Can't remember what it's called, but it's an English cheddar from Whole Foods, pretty reasonable price and it's lovely, sharp too.
They also have a lovely mild parmesan cheese, again, I can't remember what it's called, I just know where it is kept in the store :D There's also a lovely cheap blue cheese I get from time to time, but you guessed it, no idea of the name. I'm pretty useless here then :lol: |
Re: Cheese
What cheese don't I like!! The stuff is nectar to me! :D In fact I'm eating some Wensleydale with pickled onions in it right now! I love all the cheese with stuff in that comes out at Christmas. Bit sad this year as we're spending Christmas in the US so I haven't been able to take advantage of the vast selection, and no white stilton with Christmas cake! Shocking! I need to stop exclaiming!
So probably my current faves are white stilton, roquefort, camembert, proper feta, and a nice bit of Wensleydale, but it's subject to change. I'm not a fan of cheddar at all though. mmmm cheeeeeeese! |

We bought some sticky toffee pudding cheddar from Trader Joes... it was surprisingly good. Definitely a dessert cheese to have with a glass of port.
How could you do that to the poor sticky toffee pudding....:( |

Re: Cheese
:confused:I do miss bog standard, chip-as-chips mild chedder from Sainsburies.
American bright orange mild chedder is too hard and sharp. Mont Jack is a fair substitute, but it's too rubbery. I'm a fussy bastard. Cheese is quite expensive in America, too. |

Get some Tillamonk or Cabot, they're both good.
There is certainly a lot of good cheese around though, but the own brand cheap stuff is utter rubbish, impressive if it's aged 30 days, that's not cheese. I used to like the cheapo own brand tesco's crap for cheese toasties, way more sharp than the average stuff around here :) |

THAT my friend is your problem. You need to go for a regional brand. Tillamook is really good. You might want to go to a wine and cheese shop and check there. Kraft is way too easy a choice and too massed produced.
Saying that, trader joes and whole foods do have excellent choices, but tad pricey for a lot of it. |
Re: Cheese
I LOVE wensyldale cheese, but can't find it over here so make do with vermont white cheddar.
