Re: Excursion about cheese
I remember cooking something (noodles, I think) with blue cheese when I was a kid. My dad came home to a VERY stinky flat (apartment)! Despite that, he still loves blue cheese.
I'm also Terminalforlife on GitHub.
Re: Excursion about cheese
If you like blue cheese you might try one from Oregon. Best cheese in the world 2019.
Not all the great cheeses come from the east side of the pond.

From the above link.
"Rogue River Blue has taken the top prize at the 2019 World Cheese Awards, marking the first time a US cheese has ever been named World Champion Cheese.
An organic blue cheese produced by Rogue Creamery of Central Point, Oregon, Rogue River Blue beat a record-breaking 3,804 entries from 42 countries at the awards, held this year in Bergamo, Italy, in mid-October."

I live just about a mile away from Rogue Creamery. There also some excellent wineries in the Rogue Valley to go with their cheeses.

Re: Excursion about cheese
Try Bayley Hazen Blue from Jasper Hill here in Vermont.
Re: Excursion about cheese
Dubliner Sharp cheese ( a white cheddar like cheese) from Costco, really tasty, and goes very well with a robust red wine.
Re: Excursion about cheese
A while back I had feta on a Pizza that was actually pretty darn good. It was the Papa John's Greek Pizza, and I was impressed with how good it tasted.

Re: Excursion about cheese
I have simple tastes; I like marble cheddar.
Re: Chat about cheese
Blue cheese and feta are definitely my favorites but quality varies wildly. President brand chunk feta is fairly good though and they sell it at Walmart. Like mine with cold pressed Greek olive oil drenched all over it and oregano sprinkled on top. Some Kalamata olives and spinach pie (spanakopita) to nibble on helps too. Now I'm hungry...
Re: Chat about cheese
Blue cheese varies as you have stated, but a good blue, is excellent. Some Feta is just too salty for me, most is just right in small amounts.

The only cheeses I like are the ones at the extreme mild end of the spectrum (mozzarella, ricotta, parmigiana). Anything else just tastes like spoiled milk to me.

Re: Excursion about cheese
At least someone else mentions the one, Edam, that I generally use.
If just to put a bit on a cracker, then maybe a blue cheese.
Re: Chat about cheese
I like spaghetti with just olive oil and shredded Parmesan cheese.
Blue cheese fan also (but not on spaghetti!).

Re: Excursion about cheese
I also like Kerrygold's "Dubliner" white irish cheese with a red wine and the red wine I like is Taylor Port. This wine has an 18% alcohol content. I buy both items at my local HEB grocery store here in Texas.

That is it! We get it at Costco when they carry it.

@ MurphCID
If you like Kerrygold's Dubliner cheese as much as I do, HEB carries it all year long. It is one of their best selling imported cheeses. HEB, at least the one I shop at, has two other Kerrygold's flavored cheeses which I can't remember the name of at this time. But the other two Kerrygold's cheeses are located right next to the Dubliner cheese.
My sister-in-law lives on the west side of San Antonio and she has a Costco membership. She told me Costco, where she sometimes shops at, sells the Kerrygold Dubliner cheese in a "two pound block". My HEB does not carry the big block of Dubliner. Just the smaller seven ounce small block.

Re: Chat about cheese
Thanks, I actually saw it in the HEB yesterday and was shocked to see it. I thought only Costco had it around here. The big block does not last extremely long at the house. My daughter loves it in bean and cheese tacos.Night Wing wrote: ⤴Fri Sep 02, 2022 5:14 pm @ MurphCID

Re: Chat about cheese
My favourite go to cheese? An extra mature Cheddar. It's nice in a ploughmans lunch, a simple cheese and tomato salad or melted on toast with worcestershire sauce drizzled over.
I also like Wensleydale Creamery's Fountains Gold Cheddar with Caramelised Onions in it for a special treat.

I’ll tell you a DNS joke but be advised, it could take up to 24 hours for everyone to get it.
