Tasty Cheese

Ignorance is bliss.
I love the fried halloumi in batter from the chippy.
Its lucky I suppose that i rarely go to the chippy!

Halloumi cooks really well on the barbecue too.

I used to have it grilled and cut into soldiers for dipping in boiled eggs till I checked the calorie count.

Apparently there are over 750 different named cheeses produced in the UK alone ( I’ve just googled it ), so plenty to go at. I love most cheese apart from strong blue ones and any with sweet fruit. Currently in the fridge, but not for much longer, Jarlsberg, creamy Swaledale and sage Derby. I might just have to nip downstairs now for a bit of fridge raiding…..

Cheese and onion sandwich - thick, crusty bread, butter, Wensleydale cheese and freshly cut slices of onion - with a pint of Black Sheep or Old Peculiar. Bliss!

Happened on a cheese called Vacherin. Gave it to a friend for Christmas. She raves about it and I haven't been able to find it since.

Mont D'Or is a Vacherin, they sell it in Waitrose but I only see it leading up to Christmas. I love it and always take one to my SIL's when we go for Christmas.

Coverdale or Wensleydale for me.

Stir fried halloumi is lovely.
I love the texture.

I don’t like pickles, so I wouldn’t choose a ploughman’s lunch. I do love cheese though. Grilled halloumi is lovely, I like feta, Boursin, Gorgonzola, Brie, and any British cheeses (apart from those with things in them - eg cheese with apricots, yuck)

Lincolnshire Poacher is lovely, we buy it from our farmers market. They also have some lovely goat’s cheese, and Cornish Yang.

I love a crumbly Lancashire cheese too.

Cheese is one of my downfalls, there are so many I love, Brie, Cambozola, Comte, Manchego, Jarlsberg closer to home Stilton, Double Gloucester and strong Cheddar. Just typing this list makes me want a morsel right now!

Paddyann, as long as Manchego cheese doesn't get changed to Personchego cheese!

Gilly3 I think that was in just one pub where a lot of their local farmers were /are women .

I love any strong blue cheeses ,a Gorgonzola would be my first choice.I did used to buy SAMSOE locally but the deli closed and I haven't been able to get it anywhere else for decades .It was my daughters favourite cheese and it took a long time before we found anything se liked nearly as much

Me too.
It's one of my favourite things to eat out.
No fancy stuff, just all the basics, done nicely.

My favourite is Gruyère or a West Country crunchy cheddar. I fancy a ploughman’s now.

Yes, "ploughperson's" in some pubs it would seem.

Apparently ploughman's comes from the time the wives wrapped their farmer husbands' cheese lunches up in red and white cloths.

Tintern Cheese is nice too

Pop into Waitrose or Deli that has a serious Cheese counter, they should give you a little sample.
So many fabulous Cheese's available, you can select something new.

You right a "Ploughmans" is fab (but do we have to call it a Plough-person's now?)

Cheddar or Stilton melted on top of a large flat mushroom on toast makes a change.

Roquefort with pears is delicious, a ripe Camembert, smoked cheeses, such a range. I don’t like goats cheese, but the rest of them..now I’m peckish.

Manchego and Port Salut, yum!

Cambozola blue brie is my favourite.
