We have done slow cooking, fast cooking and now pies. Its time for the big one!

Cheese and Biscuits! There was a story in the news this week about a woman who ordered C&B and got some brie and some bourbons! But come on, lets hear it!

For me, my two favs are a really ripe brie on a water biscuit and a very mature cheddar on a digestive! No butter, cheese must be at room temp.

Lets hear it, celery on the side, apples? grapes? chutneys? cold or warm? butter or no butter?
 
bit plain and boring from me, mild cheddar and Jacobs crackers :thup: I can eat about 10 at a time :eek:
 
We have a place in the South of France so eat lots of cheese. I just eat the cheese, no biscuits. At home I like Stilton with a water biscuit. HID does a nice baked Camembert... little bit of white wine while baking is the winner!
 
Cheese & marmalade sandwiches, deelicious! A few years ago, at my golf club, there was a spate of people eating scones with cheese & jam. It got to a point where, if you ordered a scone, you had to tell the staff if you didn't want cheese on it. I still like mine that way - and fruit cake with Wensleydale.
 
Cheese is my true addiction. There was only my wife and I at Xmas but there were still 9 cheeses on the board. Prefer Camembert to Brie, love a good Stilton, a decent cheddar is the hardest to find but a local farm to me does a Charcoal cheddar that is jet black in colour and is gorgeous. Nothing I like more when in France than to stroll around the cheese aisle buying anything that I have not tried before. Also love mature red leicester, aged gouda, comte, stinking bishop, anything really.

A water biscuit or metzo cracker is favourite though cheddar will take a sweet biscuit well. For me it is pickle with hard cheese at lunchtime, nothing with soft cheese or after dinner cheese.
 
The stinkier and stronger the better....a water biscuit only and a cheeky glass of aged tawny port...no fruit!
 
i love cheese....

My favourites would be:

baked Camembert with a toasted french stick and some onion chutney
Grilled Hallumi (the chilli one is nice)
brie with some jacobs crackers, preferably a little bit salted
 
Delicious.
Something ripe and runny like a brie or a camembert on a dry biscuit, or salty and cruncy like roquefort or stilton on a digestive. No butter. A few grapes possibly, and what's left in that particular bottle.
 
I really like dairylea triangles, or if I'm feeling really crazy, I may go for a cheese string, in a hot dog bun, washed down with a glass of asda budget cherryade :thup:
 
When I was young and stupid I decided to treat my father to a nice chunk of Gorgonzola as a wee treat on a trip home.
We had a great cheese shop in our town and he loved to buy it when he came to visit.

300 mile journey, young kids, hottest day of the year.
