TheRapidsNerd Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 I always have some fresh Parmesan cheese in the fridge to put it over some pasta or a good salami. That's a great idea! Thank you for a good tip Soren.
Pufferfish Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 For me, I just like a nice sharp cheddar, or some warm and stringy mozzarella, or some nice provalogne(I can't spell today...), and sometimes swiss(it's good with turkey).
larrygator Posted November 1, 2007 Posted November 1, 2007 Sharp Provolone and Fresh Mozzarella rock. If anyone visits NYC, there is a restaurant Bond 45, that serves a Mozzarella sampler platter with 5-6 differents varieties of Mozzarella
RaptorBoyASU Posted November 1, 2007 Posted November 1, 2007 My favorites: Smoked Gouda Havarti (great with strawberries) Sharp Cheddar Butter Cheese (I find it in Amish Country) Fresh Parmesan Danish Blue
Jayjay719 Posted November 1, 2007 Posted November 1, 2007 I LOVE cheese! Maybe a bit to much though. I love that cracker barrel cheese the best though...yumm
Nrthwnd Posted November 1, 2007 Posted November 1, 2007 I Extra Old Cheddar. And Parmesan also is nice to grate/shake over a fresh salad, too. Havartis with spices and herbs is nice and yummy, too. And Brie or Camenbert just hit a near-mmm-melt on crackers, when micro-ed for 7 sec. max on High, lol. Got to love the cheese. One of the world's best things. And a good bread, heh heh.
Hattuchili Posted November 2, 2007 Posted November 2, 2007 That's a great idea! Thank you for a good tip Soren. I am glad I could help. Today I had a awesome burger at a place called Joakin´s. They put an extra slice of cheese on it, for me. It was so good, that I forgot to ask what kind of cheese it is. So, I think I have to go there for another burger in the next weeks! --Soren
niiicolaaah Posted November 2, 2007 Posted November 2, 2007 I'm lactose intolerant like Ed, but I LOVE CHEESE. I will sacrifice for it! My favorite kinds are munster (sp?) and BRIE!!!!! Brie and apples is pretty much amazing. My favorite restaurant back in Buffalo served the best thing ever, it was apples and brie wrapped in phylo dough and baked... mmmmmm!!! I also LOVE feta cheese but it makes me really sick.
TheRapidsNerd Posted November 2, 2007 Posted November 2, 2007 During our trip to WDW, I think it was Norway that had a great smoked meat and cheese meal or buffet somewhere. Also, anybody like those BonBell and BabyBell mini cheeses? They taste better after you take the wax off of course...
dj snow Posted November 5, 2007 Posted November 5, 2007 Hooray for cheese! I'm a big fan of double- and triple-creme bries. D'Affinois is good, as is Les Coutances (hard to find, though). The smellier, the better! (Well, up to a point.) On a trip to northern California, I stopped by the Marin French Cheese Company and picked up a variety of bries. It's about 10 miles outside of Petaluma, as I recall. They make the cheese there, offer tours, and of course sell it (at reasonable prices too). Marin Chevre Blue is highly recommended.
Bucket Posted November 12, 2007 Posted November 12, 2007 Mmmmm... ich liebe Käse! My favorites would be Gouda (I can make an excellent pasta sauce with Gouda cheese) and I also like Brie cheese with grapes. YUM!
uwgbdork Posted November 14, 2007 Posted November 14, 2007 being from wisconsin i feel that this topic is my new home. I would have to suggest every single person to try a wisconsin delecacy we like to call the cheese curd. Basically it is one of the most amazing foods ever made. They were started as a product as cheese factory workers that were taking some of the infant morsals of cheddar cheese home for their kids. If you can ever get cheese curds on the day they were produced before they were ever refrigerated you will get a chance to experince freshness like you have never ever tasted. Trust me.
pagemaster_b Posted November 14, 2007 Posted November 14, 2007 Cheddar, Extra Sharp Cheddar, White Cheddar, Extra Sharp White Cheddar, Smokey Cheddar . . . Okay, so I like Cheddar . . . a lot. Although, I do like Swiss, American, and the occasional Monteray Jack. Once, while at the Tillimook Cheese Factory in Tillimook, Oregon, I sampled some white cheddar with cracked pepper. I'm not much of a fan of peppercorns, but I found this particular flavor of cheddar to be quite tasty.
Nrthwnd Posted November 15, 2007 Posted November 15, 2007 OMG! Safeway (up here in Canada) has come up with an "Autumn Seasonal Soup" in their Signature Cafe Soups ... Smokey Cheddar Ale Soup Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmyum. Can't wait to try this. Hope it's OMGitsawesomeIhavetogetmore, lol! Their other soups are great. Here's hoping...
Nrthwnd Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 Thought I would BUMP this, as Information Needs to be Shared... Yes we do! (from a retro EPCOT W&D festival)
LoneRider92 Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 If I didn't live so far away from you Bill, I would be tempted to send you a care package of Wisconsin cheeses. I live right down the road from a state-champion cheese producer, and if a place wins a state championship for cheese in Wisconsin, they must be something pretty special. And, from what I've tasted, they definitely are. Tell you what, if you swing through the frozen dairyland on a TPR trip or something in the future, I'll be sure to hook you up.
spinning man Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 Here in the UK, Cathedral City (Cheddar) is the holy grail of cheeses. Well, in my opinion at least. Eating it solid isn't bad, but heating it up on some toast gives it a better taste and is quite filling. A image for good measure
Nrthwnd Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 ^^ I have visited visited Wisconsin a few times, years ago and yes, the cheese there was/is awesome! And ^ I know of a lot of cheeses that melt great on toast, etc. Good eating!
Duff Posted February 2, 2016 Posted February 2, 2016 Our cheese drawer in the fridge is stock-piled at all times. Slices, crumbles, wedges... you name it! I <3 cheese.
Philrad71 Posted February 6, 2016 Posted February 6, 2016 ^ Same here, although we are getting low in that all we have right now is a brick of Cabot White Cheddar (love me some Cabot) and some crumbled blue cheese. And to think that tomorrow is the Super Bowl? I need to get to Wegmans quick! I can't believe that I had never seen this thread before...I LOVE cheese!!! Smokey Curd (or any curd for that matter) or Smoked Gouda would probably be at or near the top for me.
Nrthwnd Posted February 6, 2016 Posted February 6, 2016 ^ Well, it's been 9 years since I last posted.... Yum. Cheese Soup in a Bread Bowl!
Philrad71 Posted February 6, 2016 Posted February 6, 2016 ^ You need to tell me these things, Bill....shame on you! And for anyone interested, here is a link for those awesome smokey cheese curds that I was talking about! Cuba Cheese Shoppe Right after Grandpa's Cheese Barn (just south of Cleveland on I-71), this is my 2nd favorite store ever!
Nrthwnd Posted February 6, 2016 Posted February 6, 2016 ^ I just did, 25 minutes ago. Cheezies > Any Other Brand Cheese 'Puff'. They are truely AWESOME!
