darksabre Posted September 26, 2017 Report Share Posted September 26, 2017 (edited) I break cheeses down by standalone cheese vs. meal cheese Standalone: Dutch Smoked Gouda Aged Sharp Cheddars, 5+ years at least Limburger Regular old Gouda Meal: Everything else. Parm, Ricotta, Farmers cheese, American Cheese, Provolone, Monterey Jack, Cottage cheese, Feta, Blue, and so on.

sabills Posted September 26, 2017 Report Share Posted September 26, 2017 1. Aged Mimolette (you can find it at Wegs) 2. Manchego 3. Aged Parmesan Reggiano, in chunks for eating 4. Fresh Mozzarella 5. A nice strong Brie 6. All of them, really. My man! After I posted this I went to wegmans, bought, and then ate, a whole container of them. #noregrats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josie Posted September 26, 2017 Report Share Posted September 26, 2017 To try to be a good gf I got d4rk the smelliest cheese I could find once. I don't remember what it was anymore, but I went to a special place with all kinds of good/rare cheeses and said "give me your stinkiest cheese". The guy smiled and happily obliged. Well, d4rk loved it. And it actually did taste good when I tried a bit- very mild compared to the smell. But god. I brought it on myself... even in plastic baggie and tupperware, the entire fridge reeked of that singular odor only a fine stinky cheese can bestow. Everything. Everything from the veggies to the beer had a tinge of "butt death wrapped in trench foot accented with a light sprinkling of three day old vomit". Never did that again. He loves limburger... not allowed to come near me for 4-6 hours post consumption. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

biodork Posted September 26, 2017 Report Share Posted September 26, 2017 Jo beat me to it, but smoked gouda is probably my favorite anytime cheese. Excellent on a sandwich or for snacking. Muenster is another favorite sandwich cheese, and yeah, provolone, too. But man, if we're talking about the kind of cheese you'd put on a cheese board, we're going next level. Too many that I've enjoyed and not remembered their names, but Humboldt Fog and Gjetost are standouts. And anything port wine. I dig most any cheese that isn't Swiss or stinky/moldy.

DarthEbriate Posted September 26, 2017 Report Share Posted September 26, 2017 All the cheeses. A synergy of cheeses! If they're too stinky (the Limburgers, bricks, and tallegios of the world) they can get a little troublesome for more than a few bites. But from cream to cottage to curd to wheel, I'm all over it like a Crumb on a Hutt tail. All-time favorite is a crucolo. And the Wisconsinite in me still loves the Kaukauna Port Wine spread (the tub---not the ball---because of the versatility) even though the rest of me really doubts it's actually even categorically a cheese... more a cheese product.

Eleven Posted September 26, 2017 Report Share Posted September 26, 2017 Aged gouda. Havarti. Burrata. Swiss. Colby. That's probably my top 5 in no particular order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smoked gouda Havarti dill Munster (is this the first love for munster?) Swiss Colby Extra sharp cheddar is just a given. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josie Posted September 26, 2017 Report Share Posted September 26, 2017 I guarantee that I will get home tonight to find d4rk eating a block of freshly purchased cheese thanks to this thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwampD Posted September 26, 2017 Report Share Posted September 26, 2017 And Boursin (it says it's a gournay) is just rediculous, but I think of it more as a spread. D4rk, you are right. they really have to be broken down into subgroups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomorrow's game: one hand for a block of cheese, one hand for a frosty beer (or whiskey... or juice, I guess, depending on someone's tastes). Hockey, beer, cheese. Pretty much a perfect evening.

Weave Posted September 26, 2017 Report Share Posted September 26, 2017 We are vacationing at Chautauqua Lake starting Thursday. One of the places we are visiting is https://www.reveriecreamery.com/ They have alot more than their locally made stuff though. Cheeses from all over the world. I get lost in their shop. Everything from locally made colby and cheddar to some of the ripest, stinkiest stuff France can produce. My wife says it smells like feet. I say it smells like money. JUST TAKE MY MONEY!!!! Last Summer I dropped $100 in there. The wife was not amused. She also forbade me near her until the effects subsided. To try to be a good gf I got d4rk the smelliest cheese I could find once. I don't remember what it was anymore, but I went to a special place with all kinds of good/rare cheeses and said "give me your stinkiest cheese". The guy smiled and happily obliged. Well, d4rk loved it. And it actually did taste good when I tried a bit- very mild compared to the smell. But god. I brought it on myself... even in plastic baggie and tupperware, the entire fridge reeked of that singular odor only a fine stinky cheese can bestow. Everything. Everything from the veggies to the beer had a tinge of "butt death wrapped in trench foot accented with a light sprinkling of three day old vomit". Never did that again. He loves limburger... not allowed to come near me for 4-6 hours post consumption. Trench foot isn't far from accurate. I do recall reading somewhere that alot of the bacteria used to make cheese is also found in our feet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
