I want to try brie, and camembert (sp?) and all that other fancy stuff... I just haven't for whatever reason.

Your thread is making me HUNGRY!

But we also have a cheese factory nearby that's sells cheese from all over the world, in addition to what they make. They don't make the Havarti, but always stock several kinds. They do however make the most wonderful fresh cheese curds.

For munching I like havarti some days and sharp cheddar the next and swiss the next. For sandwiches sometimes I like swiss, sometimes provolone. Then there's Monterey Jack, mozzarella, parmaggiano reggiano, pecorino romano, Maytag blue...and on and on and on...

Feta, Provolone, Swiss and many more that I can't think of. I don't love American cheese, but I like it on some foods.

I'd go with Sage Derby. It's one of those foods that I physically cannot stop eating, regardless of whether I am hungry or not.

It's a Spanish cheese made with 100% goat's milk. Has this sublime, nutty flavor. Must be tried if you haven't. Trader Joe's usually carries it.

36. NO fair, can't pick just one! OK ColbyJack marble cheese is |
|
my favorite all purpose do it all cheese; snacking, omelettes, mac/cheese,casseroles,etc. Makes a great grilled cheese or quesadilla
I also like the xtra sharp NY or Vermont cheddar to make Welsh Rarebit! Have to make it at least one time every winter. Rich thick cheese sauce, on saltines w/onions and pickles.....heaven
we are always trying new cheeses around here: our favorite grocery, Central Market stocks about 400 kinds of cheese at any given time. So about once a month we try out a new one. Sometimes we bomb. Sometimes we fall in love. Just depends.
Try this:
1 cup shredded mozarella 1/2 cup mayo 1/2 cup soft butter
2 or 3 green onions
chop onions finely and combine w/other ingredients in food processor.
spread thickly on baguette rounds or halved french loaf.
Broil until bubbly.
don't burn your mouth!!!!!

40. What's the most aged cheddar you've tried? |
|
I've had 14-year-old cheddar -- sampled at the Dane County Farmer's Market (but I ended up getting some younger stuff).
My favorite's probably the four-year cheddar -- best bang for the buck.

38. Well aged danish blue cheese. Stilton is good as well |
|
and Roquefort, and cambizola, and . . . you get the picture. If it's moldy and smells like feet, I love it!

41. Does cream cheese count? |
|
My boyfriend just made a yummy cream cheese hollandaise sauce, which we ate with brocolli.
Aside from that, my favorite cheese is aged swiss. Provolone used to be my favorite, but I must've gotten sick of it.
My boyfriend's favorites are Gouda and Edam. He claims to like head cheese, but I don't believe him...

Sweet dreams are made of cheese Who am I to disagree? Travel the world for crates of cheese Everybody's looking for something to eat Some of them want to melt it Some of them want you to spread it by you Some of them want to eat it whole Some of them want to be on nachos
Sweet dreams are made of cheese Who am I to disagree? Travel the world to buy tons of cheese Everybody's eats it on something Some of them want to grate it Some of them want to have it on pizza Some of them want to carve it up Some of them want it on crackers
I wanna see the moon and its cheese I wanna know what's inside a sandwich of cheese (Whispering) Open your mouth up, shove it in Keep your plate up, spread it on Hold your crackers up, melt it on Keep your nachos up, serve it on Hold your pizza up, Parmesan Don't hog it all, move it 'round Eat it all!
Sweet dreams are made of cheese Why does everyone disagree? Travel the world and see lots of cheese Everybody prefers something Some of them want to eat Gouda Some of them want to get Cheddar, too Some of them want some Mozzarella Some of them want it stinky, too
I'm gonna use it and abuse it I'm gonna eat it on everything Gonna use it and re-use it I'm gonna know what's inside it, too
