ooooh. now that's a really hard question. :unsure:

I love my regular red leicester and mature cheddar.
But can't forget the smoked cheese, edam, wensleydale with cranberry, that spicy one with peppers, mozzarella, parmesan, philadelphia, diarylea triangles... :ermm:

Not so keen on the stinky cheese like blue stilton, but I lived off a lush goats milk one in Norway. /me dribbles :wub:

What Cheese Are You? (http://cupped-expressions.net/cheese/quiz/)




You are mozzarella!
Aunt Mozzarella

You are a shiny, soft, round cheese. You are very imaginative and creative, but you don't like to stand out. You don't mind solitude at times and you love to do art.

The plastic, spun-curd buffalo milk cheese Mozzarella, originated from southern Italy. Pasteurized milk is curdled at 90 degrees F and the curd is cut. Extra time in the vat is allowed so that the curd can sink to the bottom and so that the lactic acids can soften the curd to make it easier to knead. The curd is treated with extremely hot water (200 degrees F) and is kneaded into a shiny lump. Bits of the mass are taken off cooled salted and are soon ready to be marketed.

You are camembert!
Camembert

You are a creamy, delicate tasting cheese. You are refined and graceful and very organized. As a very insightful cheese, you like to ponder the meaning of life.

A very famous French cheese, Camembert dates back to the 18th century and is named for a Norman village in which there is a statue of the creator of this particular variety (Marie Harel). Originally, this cheese was dry and yellow-brown, but after a few modifications it became softer and more earthy. In 1855 one of Marie Harel's daughters presented Napoleon with a piece of that cheese, saying that it came from village called Camembert. He liked it a lot and from that moment Camembert became known by its contemporary name. At the beginning of its ripening, Camembert is crumbly and soft and gets creamier over time (usually 2-3 weeks). A genuine Camembert has a delicate salty taste. [ Country: France || Milk: cow milk || Texture: soft || Recommended Wine: St. Emilion, St Estephe ]

I like Camembert, what a clever little quiz. I also like Dolcelatte.

I've only seen it once (in Slovenia, not surprisingly), quite liked it.


You are emmental cheese!

You are a sweet-smelling, light-toned cheese with large holes. You are adventurous and love challenges. You are easily excited and sometimes even a little mischievous.

Extra sharp cheddar (like real Black Diamond) is good in sandwiches too.

You can melt grated cheese, by sprinkling it on something hawt - like beans on toast.

You can't grate melted cheese

=> grated cheese > melted cheese :smilie4:

You are swiss cheese!
Father 10-year-old

You are pale yellow, nutty-flavored cheese with large holes. You are indifferent to the world around me. You are dreamy and often lost in my thoughts.

Swiss has a firmer texture than baby Swiss, and is known for being shiny, pale yellow with large holes. Flavor is mild, sweet and nut-like. It is an American imitation of the Swiss Emmental. The process is specifically designed so that no rind forms on the cheese (maturing takes place in vacuum-packed plastic wrapping) for mass-production purposes. The taste of the cheese is very mild. It can be eaten with apples, pears, grapes and thinly-sliced prosciutto ham and salami, fruity white wine, aged red wine, crane-raspberry juice, tomato or vegetable juice. [ Country: United States || Milk: cow milk || Texture: hard

You are parmesan cheese!
Parmesan Brothers

You are a white, crumbly cheese. You are very social and talkative. You are incredibly friendly to everyone, but also a little lazy.

Named after an area in Italy, Parma Parmesan is one of the world's most popular and widely-enjoyed cheeses. Milk used for Parmesan is heated and curdled in copper containers but not before most of the milk's cream has been separated and removed. Curd is cut and then heated to 125 degrees F, all the while stirring the curd to encourage whey runoff. The curd is further cooked at temperatures of up to 131 degrees F, then pressed in cheesecloth-lined moulds. After two days, the cheeses are removed and salted in brine for a month, then allowed to mature for up to two years in very humid conditions

It made me crave roast beef sandwiches with cheese, tomato, sliced mushroom and cheese, lightly grilled in the oven. I decided to make one, but there was no roast beef left, no tomato left, no mushroom left, and no rolls left. So I had cheese and crackers instead. Guess it's grocery shopping day, today.

It was the burnt brown bits made me think of it though, as Jonno tends to forget he put stuff in the oven.

Yep.

It's frustrating making dinner, getting halfway through cooking only to find you've run out of the rest of the ingredients. Last night it was shrimp fried rice, and I'd run out of olive oil, was down to the last cup of rice, and was out of soy sauce. I was lucky though - I managed to locate a few packets of soy sauce from the local chinese take out and it was enough to scrape by. That'll teach to me to procrastinate.
