Its Christmas and cheese has appeared all over the supermarket shelves. yay!
I wanted to tell you a little bit about the new Cheese phenomenon hitting the headlines this week.
LUXURY CHEESE
Recently a friend of mine went to a "posh" Michelin star restaurant in London and for dessert she chose the cheese. It was a Brie split down the middle and filled with soft cheese which was then laced with truffle oil. She showed me pictures and it looked scrumptious.
Not only that by Stylist cited Posh fromage as going up in the world this week.
So I did a bit of research and its true!
Fortnum & Mason sell a whole Brie filled with Truffle. I think we can call this luxury since it is not exactly a bargain at £58! However it is a whole Brie and would be a great as a special Christmas treat for a cheese lover.
Truffled brie and Truffle Waterloo is also available from Harvey Nichols 5th Floor Cheese Counter.
Also available on their website is this Kingly cheese - see above - This fun ceramic jar is the second in their ‘Crown Jewels’ range which are all worth a look at, designed to house their award-winning organic Stilton in style. Created in eau de nil with regal red and gold detail, it is a fitting home for this king of cheeses.
Truffled Honey is another luxury item that has appeared on the scene. This works well with cheese be it a nice goats cheese or a Gorgonzola. It seems to be cropping up all over the place in London eateries. For example the Salt Yard on Charlotte st, Central London, see below.
Anyways I have been working hard recently (i always work hard obviously!) but i have a couple of weeks off so planning on doing lots more cheese research.Oh and good news... my fav cheese if you have not noticed is Godminster and is now available in Waitrose at the cheese counter. Ding Bloody Dong as i hear this week.
