What Kind of Cheeses Do You Eat?

[Camper6]

Grated Parmesan sprinkled on pasta or even on soup. Takes the place of salt in soup.

Cheddar for grilled cheese sandwiches. Can't keep it too long even in the fridge. Gets moody quickly.

I love grated Parmesan.

Before I went vegan, I loved gouda, tilsiter, havarti, edam, brie, blue, swiss, gruyere. Now I stick with vegan cheddar, feta, smoked gouda, mozzarella, provolone. All good.

 

[SeaBreeze]

I like Danish Cream Havarti and Gouda the best, but also like other cheeses as long as they are mild and not strong, no blue cheese, etc.

I enjoy a bit of good stilton or aged asiago when I can find them.

i love cheese,, and normally buy , a strong cheddar, cathedral city, and a smoked cheese, called Applewood.......stilton is my fav blue cheese...

 

[Capt Lightning]

We eat quite a lot of 'Cathedral City', and I'm very partial to Applewood too.
There are few cheeses that I don't like. I don't like pizza, so I never have mozzarella
but there are too many nice cheeses to choose an all time favourite. For a blue cheese, I really like St.Agur or Strathdon Blue.

Love a very bold and strong cheddar, like a Balderson aged cheddar... I like when you cut into it, it crumbles... also like a Brie... Like most cheeses, just not a BIG fan of blue cheese...

Well, I have a "cheese drawer" in my refrigerator that never goes unused. We love all kinds of cheese (except goat's milk). My favorite grilled cheese is wheat bread and Muenster. Yum.

 

[RadishRose]

I like every cheese I've ever eaten, and they are many. I don't eat cheese every day.

For those of you who don't like goat cheese there is one called Humboldt Fog, made in CA that is delicious and is one of my top favorites.

i find brie tasteless......or is it me ?

 

[charry]

i find camembert tasteless also

 

[RadishRose]

i find camembert tasteless also

Those two especially, need to be eaten at room temp. I like Brie better, myself.

 

[pleinmont]

I like the usual, cheddar, swiss, parmesan, mozarella and such and also a few of the soft ones. Warm brie on Carr's Water Biscuit with a fruit or berry is perfect lunch for me.

So do I.

There's Brie and there's Brie. I've found some ( Like Le President) quite tasteless, but others taste very nice. Many of the ones on sale in the shops need to be kept for a while (maybe a week or two) to ripen.

Anything but the stinky ones. Havarti is a favorite, and I love the Kerry Gold white cheddar. Truth is, If it's cheese, I'll eat it. A little wine on the side doesn't hurt, either.

Yesterday I bought Merlot Bellavitano made by Sartori. It is for putting on crackers and definitely has a hint of red wine to it. I plan on never stopping eating it.

I love Muenster cheese but it has to be Primo Taglia, a brand I've only seen at Acme supermarkets. I also loved a brand of queso we got from Costco a couple of years ago, forgot the brand name. The queso I got since didn't measure up. I buy shredded cheeses to make pizza and put over pasta. Most recent was Taco. Sometimes it's Mexican blend. I like to put American cheese in my farina sometimes. I also love onion and chive cream cheese.

There are very few cheeses I don't like. Spouse is pickier; his tastes changed after his stroke. For a while he was extremely sensitive to scents, and he developed a real dislike for Monterey Jack and certain other cheeses, such as Havarti and Jarlsberg.

Our favorites are:

• Brie and Brie-types, including St. Angel, Brillat-Savarin, Mt. Tam, Fromager D'affinois, Cremeux de Bourgogne
• Sharp Cheddar, especially white cheddar as we prefer the texture of it
• Gruyere, prefer Swiss over French
• Feta, preferably Bulgarian
• Chevre, especially fresh Californian chevre from Laurel Chenel
• Brie-type blues: Cambazolla, Humboldt Fog
• Fresh mozzarella and burrata: best is the Di Stefano brand; but quite a few restaurants out here make their own fresh cheese (it's extremely perishable) and it's wonderful.
• Parmesan and Parmesan/Romano. Not as fond of Grana Padano, although it has its uses.

I had thought that Gouda was hard to find here but found some the other day online and have been enjoying it. Haven't had it in 40 years!
