Well it's that time of year again when we should be sharing tips for the finest cheese boards on earth.
And the peace thread, to reduce rows on here at least for now lol I'm guilty if you're not, and have apologised privately, have the right hump lately, down to a woman as usual, I say woman, more axe wielding lunatic than woman but all wars come to an end. How do I choose them? I don't know, but the knackers certainly rule the mind. I think I should have been a monk. surprised norf hasn't banned me in recent times, cap suitably doffed Clive.
Anyway, to more important matters. Your choice of cheeses please gentlemen.
I have an array of fine Spanish options, and have found a brilliant Danish Blue that has weened me off Stilton over the years. The prices in the English shops here are obscene, and mostly aimed at Northerners. I am non-plussed when it comes to tinned peas, mushy peas and worst of all kebab meat, in the freezer no less. I'd ask the northern shop owners about Sussex Black Bomber but it would only get me arrested. Sophisticated it's not, until you get into the Spanish culture proper. Which takes time, language and a change in mindset. All good stuff. The women ain't bad and the cheese is to die for so mustn't grumble really.
My top tips here are a Gouda, Roquefort, Danish Blue, a very cheeky local one whose name escapes me, a bit of peccorino if you can get a good'UN and a bit of Serano Ham if you can find it, very local to here and compliments perfectly.
It's been a funny old year 2016 for many reasons, but it's Christmas again so peace, cheese and fine wines and ales to you all. Over to you for all matters cheese.

Was in Tesco the other night to get some cheeses and fancied some pickled onions to go with them. Found a Barry Norman's, yes he of Film 80/90/00something, traditional pickles onions compete with the spices still in the jar. Nice, firm and crunchy with a real bite to them, far better than the soft shît that masquerades in a Haywards jar nowadays. |  |

Cheese is a disgusting lump of something, I hate the bastard stuff and there will never be peace, harmony and communal singing in the world until cheese is banned by the WHO. |
Ha! I'm an addict. I blame cheese. | | | |

My flop in Savoy is within 6 (six) cheese appellations: Abondance, Beaufort, Comté, Chevrotin, Tome des Bauges, and Reblochon. Plenty of other local ones too, all about 98% fat. The whole place is owned and run by Big Cheese.
By the way, what's the best cheese for getting bears out of caves?
Camembert. |
well, i can see how it would work if the bear was called bert, but under any other circumstances........  | | | |

Sainsbury do the best fiery Mexican Cheddar. Its spicy and delicious. Not sure which wine I'd match it with though. |  | | |

I bought 3 Snowdonia chuckles including the whiskey one I haven't had for ages.
Should go down well ale I've been amassing for the last few weeks like the Wehrmacht on the Polish Border. |  |
