About cheese
So I'm putting together a cheese smorgasbord and looking for around 10 that I haven't tried before.
I've got an independent shop quite local that stocks loads so hopefully I can source most.
And pickle suggestions that are awesome would be appreciated.
I don't really like blue mouldy cheeses but 1 might make the list if you can persuade me
Think Caerphilly and hit me up with your cheese recommendations. |

I like a soft cheeses like stinky brie and camembert- a bit of roquefort too.
My go to pickles are chilli jam and cara_elised onion chutney
I'm not buying them until the last minute though or I'll eat them before my family arrive |

Reblochon for a soft cheese is delicious and definitely worth a spot.
Lincolnshire Poacher for the hard cheese, makes a nice change from farmhouse cheddar.
I'm not the biggest fan of blue cheese so I normally go for two softer cheeses - a goats cheese like Golden Cross or Aldwych might be a good shout but goats cheese can be quite hit and miss so depends on if you like it really! |

Ref blue cheese, ask your monger if they have any dolcelatte
It's much creamier than the likes of stilton
You need to try it on a digestive biscuit with a slice of chilled pear on top
I was sceptical
I am a convert
Creamy cheese, crunchy biscuit, sweet pear, it works |

"There's a sticky toffee pudding cheddar somewhere too that goes down well with a small glass of dessert wine"
Cheshire Cheese Company do that too. Very nice with a glass of port |

I think that might be the one
I bought a selection from a shop in Matlock
Now I've turned 50, a drive and a wander round a cheese shop constitutes a day out |

"Cambozola is a lovely blue soft cheese
Cross of Brie and Gorgonzola"
Yes I'm getting that too - delicious!
And there's a mustard seed brie that I had last year which was Amazing (drool) |

Reblochon is a good shout. Reminds me of ski holidays in Le Grand Bornand. |
