Taking a slight tangent away from cheese but staying with NW's point there is a South-East Asian fruit called a durian (CorkWhite has probably come across it in the Philippines) and is similar to the Jackfruit. It smells overpoweringly of raw sewage but tastes like very heaven.NottinghamWhite wrote:Talking of smells a really strong smelly cheese is Parmesan but I love it with my pasta dishes. Smells of smelly feet but tastes wonderful

Re: Cheese
Waitrose do a stilton from Cropwell Bishop, which, as you may know, is not too far from Nottingham. It's very good.ChilwellWhite wrote:We're having our annual trip to Melton Mowbay this week to get a porkpie and some Stilton for Boxing Day. Like our cheeses in this house.

Re: Cheese
Mrs MW and I have got into having cheese on a Sunday evening accompanied by Italian or Spanish charcuterie, pickled onions along with other bits and pieces.
Our current selection of cheeses include Morbier (French), goats milk camembert (from Lidl - amazing taste), above-mentioned Cropwell Bishop stilton and Ossau Iraty - a superb sheep's milk cheese from the French Basque country. We have a Reblechon (France) set aside for Christmas and usually have Le Rustique camembert which I enjoy most when it's partly turned to liquid.
All washed down with a nice bottle of red.
We're also into raclette - we get the cheese from Waitrose - and our friend from Switzerland also bought us some special packets of fondue recently which we've yet to try. Medium dry white wine with both of these.
We both like cheddar, but most other British cheeses we don't enjoy.
