I'm hosting Christmas Eve this year. We tend to do a really nice cheeseboard. Any suggestions? My favourites are Tor, Smoking Ember, wild garlic Yarg and a mildish Stilton.

Can’t beat Black Bomber with chutney

Truffle brie and charcoal cheddar 🤤

Wyfe of Bath - it’s incredible! Like a nutty creamy Gouda.

Try Stichelton instead of Stilton. Basically the same thing but made with unpasteurised milk and absolutely gorgeous.

Totally agree with this.

Then add a Camembert that's been washed in Calvados and the world will be a better place.

I love a smoked cheddar.

Goat's Gouda is lovely.

Black bomber is a favourite in our house and we usually buy a huge piece as everyone goes for that first

RealHousewivesOfTaunton · 18/11/2024 22:32

Mmm, these are sounding amazing! I'll do some googling.

Super aged Gouda from Borough Market Gouda stall - deep orange

Montagnolo Affine - creamy blue deliciousness

Am all about the extras - frozen black grapes, celery, walnuts, pickled things, apple jelly, chutneys

and Bolli crackers and water biscuits
