Cheese

Haloumi anyone ?

Fried halloumi with lime and caper vinagrette (Delia) - really squeaky on the teeth. Yum yum pigs bum

Nice aside for anyone who makes macaroni cheese (or any cheese sauce for that matter): use a fairly mild cheddar cheese in the main, for every four ounces of this mild cheese, use one ounce of Stilton - it gives it a healthy cheesy kick.

Of course, cheese is often served best with a damn fine glass of port. Thoroughly recommended.

Incidentally, you can't get the cheeses mentioned above in the good old US of A - oh, what they are missing...

But on the subject of Italian cheese, I recommend Pecorino di Pienza to anyone who wants a mindblowing, sheepy cheesy experience.

Good shout Lord B, thats a cracking choice. Served on ever-so-slightly-stale bread with huge dollops of very salty butter. Bellissimo formaggio.

My personal favourite at the moment is Manchego.

Like it fried, like it uncooked, but once had it deep fried in breadcrumbs in cyprus (with a side of lemon wedges)

Amazing stuff...

Good call.
Had a little Havarti with dill today.
