Day Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 My best tip for cheese is grate and melt some on every single meal, cheese improves everything you eat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comrade 86 Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 My tip would be to make sure never to leave the house without it. You never know when you'll need cheese..... Oh, and this... https://www.finecheese.co.uk/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kernow Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 My advice is don't eat cheese at all. Disgusting stuff. Everything about it is horrible. I won't eat anything that has cheese in it, or on it. That includes pizza. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 I normally drive over to Cropwell Bishop and buy half a wheel of Stilton direct from the dairy. Chuck in some mature cheddar, bit of goats cheese and something softer like a Boursan, variety of crackers and some nice Chutneys and jobs a good un. Maybe some pate too. For once @David has it right, cheese pretty much improves every other food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AmericanRam Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 @Gritters My favorites are Gouda,provolone, and asiago. A store near me has quite a lot from all over the world I haven't tried yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phoenix Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 Here's a good site. They had a stall at the Charsworth Flower show and we bought some of the Extra Mature. Tasty. They do a very wide range. Worth a perusal. https://www.cheshirecheesecompany.co.uk/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dog Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 Bloke down the road was a big cheese eater. Said "A life without cheese is not worth living" Then had a huge heart attack. Still around but not allowed to eat cheese. Me, acting on the "lightning doesn't strike on the same road" principle have it most meals sage Derby? Brie? Austrian smoked?

Phoenix Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 I like Derby Sage but I find it tends to dry up very quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McRainy Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 The little cheese shop on Cromford canal usually has some good offers on interesting cheeses. Last year I got about four and a half tons of Winchester for around 12p. They were clearing it out for some more ‘Christmassy’ cheeses to come in. Also, if you like stilton (I don’t), the Red Lion at Birchover sells a good local one. My favourite meal on earth is welsh rabbit. Peak Farm extra mature cheddar is ideal because it melts to the perfect texture. Some cheddars, like Pilgrims’ Choice, go all stringy. Melt in a pan with a dash of milk, worcester sauce, mustard, chilli and black pepper, pour onto hot buttered toast and allow to congeal slightly before eating. Best cheese ever, parmesan.

Any of the full-flavoured bries - I love to stuff rosemary sprigs and garlic shavings into them then pop them in the oven. 15 to 20 mins @180 then cut a cross in the top and dunk fresh french stick bread chunks, fondu-stylee. I love the hard cheeses too - Emmental and Gouda are my favourites but I'm not terribly adventurous and tend to stick to what I know. I'd be getting some Somerset Cheddar too to go with Boxing Day cold-cuts. All of sudden I feel quite peckish! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
