Day 75
Northumberland Nettle
Mild creamy hard cheese with nettles flecked through the cheese. Pleasant taste, not sure if the nettles add much, but I would go back for seconds from the cheese board.
Day 74
Homemade#1
My first attempt at cheese making this year, quite pleased with the results. Very simple to make, mascarpone style cheese. I will be adding some flavourings in the next couple of days.
Day 73
After Burn
More chilli based cheese, quite spicy, added it to an omelette with some Blue Ewe.
Day 72
Red Storm
Snowdonia Red Leicester aged to crystalline perfection, best Red Leicester I have had. Great flavour gritty, salty and warming.
Day 71
Extra mature cheddar from Parkhead Farm near Inglewhite in Lancashire. Tangy and a little bit crystalline giving it it’s gritty nature. Very enjoyable crunchy cheddar, would love to try this with another year of aging.
Day 70
Stilton with orange and date
Nice but not in a cheese like way, this is way too sweet to be classed as cheese, it is more like a slice of cheesecake.
Day 69
Mrs Kirkhams Lancashire
Cheese for breakfast! Mrs Kirkhams Lancashire is a robust, rustic example of England’s greatest cheese. Crumbly, tangy and with a fair bit of bite, went well with the toast and marmalade!
Day 68
Dorstone Goats cheese
Choices, choices! Today I had a five new cheeses, only one counts for the day, but I think I should be allowed the others as reserves in case of illness in the coming months! Today’s cheese was a lovely goats cheese at the end of a simply superb meal at the Northcote Hotel, Lisa Goodwin-Allen really knows what she is doing in a kitchen. Best pigeon starter ever.
Day 67
Mrs Bells Blue Ewe
Very tasty, mildly blue, sheepy cheese, soft and melts easily, great for cooking or just eating.
