Does anyone on here love different cheeses? My favourite at the moment is Wensleydale [a soft white crumbly Yorkshire cheese] with cranberries embeddied in it, I also love Stilton with chopped apricots in it, also smoked cheddar.
Apologies if you didn't 'get' the title for this thread, it's a line form 'The Quarter Masters Store' which my Father was always singing [hollering.]
 

I have some of that Wensleydale at the moment; I also like Lancashire..., and Port Salut; and cheddar for cheese on toast, and..and...
 
I've always loved all cheeses. Recently I discovered I have a mutation to the MTHFR gene and the result of this mutation is that my body does not handle ammonia optimally and cheese is one of the foods highest is ammonia. So I was advised to give up cheese. I sometimes wish I'd never had my genome analyzed.
 
All time favourites are Stilton and Danish Blue.... lovely!!

A few months ago my grandson and I had been watching Wallace & Gromit and he asked me about Wensleydale so I bought some a couple of days later which we had with some cream crackers. He wasn't impressed, preferred his usual Cheddar. ;)
 
I love most cheese, except blue and gorgonzola. although blue cheese is good in a salad dressing.

Like to cook and bake with mozarellas and ricottas - like fillings for tartlets - mozarella, ricotta, spinach and bits of salmon, yum yum.

Use ricotta for a spinach lasagna as well. Sprinkle parmesan on pasta dishes. Cheese is a very good thing.
 
Thanks for the cheese song - very funny, yet somehow inspiring - what I could catch of the words.....was good
 
Monroe, Wisconsin...every other yr they have the International Cheese Festival. People from all over Europe attend. Especially the Swiss... since Monroe, WI is considered "little Switzerland"

If your ever in the mood for a Midwest home town vacation.....

and you will learn more about Polka Dancing, then you could imagine.

Remember those Ricola commercials..... LOL.... yep! We got them too!

EDIT: But you better bring some serious money, because you are going to go home stockpiled with Cheese. Ya'all do know about "Cheese Curds"? right? and the deep fried Cheese Curds are the ULTIMATE OF TASTE BUDS!!!

BTW... if the Cheese Curd doesn't squeak while chewed... it ain't fresh!

I forgot to mention... It is Wisconsin.... therefore, the beer battered Cheese Curds are TO DIE FOR!!!!

Cheese; so very dear to my heart!

parmigiano reggiano
all the bleus

Those are my top fav's. I'm sure they must be out there, but I never ate a cheese I didn't like.

I love cheese..

Havarti,
Blue stilton..
Brie..
Mozzarella

Red Leicester
Double Gloucester
Gouda

Unfortunately these days I have to limit my cheese intake to occasionally due to my intolerance of high acidic foods..
 
Is cheese acidic Holly? Didn't know that, I would have thought the opposite.I could not live without cheese, must have been a mouse in another life.
