TALK ABOUT CHEEZY!!!!!

Apr 4, 2003 9:09 AM
Hi, Sherry. Welcome to the Cook's Nook! I see that you are really getting around the boards. I'm happy you like watching the basset hounds. I am addicted to the houndcam, even though I have a real live Basset right here at my feet. They really do sleep all day :)

Back on topic, my favorite cheese is gorgonzola. I consider it to be the best bleu cheese and adore it's sharp bite. If I am really in the mood for some tang, I will buy some Limburger.

I also adore the ultra expensive English cheddars. I have tried many and have yet to find one that I do not like. I especially like the layered double gloucester.

Frankly I do not think there is a single cheese that I do not like. Whenever I attend a party, I make a beeline to the cheese platter before I even get a drink! I know Macmike will be ashamed of me.

Ah...so many to choose from! It all depends what I'm eating it with (or alone). Swiss, provolone, mozzarella, blue cheese, parmesean, romano, feta, and my new favorite gruyere, but I'm hunting for bigger and better cheeses. It is now my mission as mentioned in my "Ahhh, the power of cheese" thread!

Mona, I had to give up the Basset chat about a year ago. I just love Blah and Mbeex and Ladyshine but I cannot spend that amount of time chatting :(

Blah and mbeex are my favorites over there and the word games are to die for, I absolutey ROLL! I don't have much time either, but the wonderful thing about them is there memory is solid and they are so welcoming even though I only have occasion to pop in about once a month for a couple of quick posts!

(Sherry, my aplogies for taking your thread off subject! Welcome aboard, I hope to see you around!)

Hands down - Canadian old Cheddar, white or orange! Why? Because it tastes great and it's so versatile! Grilled cheese, mac'n'cheese, pizza, nachos, in soups, in pierogies & empanadas, or just plain on top of a soda cracker!

But never on apple pie....f r e a k s ! ; )

I'm not much for fancy stinky cheeses like Brie or Camembert, etc....in fact I won't touch 'em! Blech! Don't even talk to me 'bout Gorgonzola. Shudder! LOL! Even regular cheeses like Swiss and Brick I'm not too keen on....never was!

Bleu and Gruyere are all right...but only as part of something else, never on its own or just on top of a cracker like Cheddar. Same with Feta and Goat's Cheese....it's gotta be a really good recipe for me to enjoy Goat's Cheese....lots of other ingredients. LOL!

Gouda's not bad...I especially like Spiced Gouda...with cumin or caraway in it. Havarti's okay when it's spiced with stuff like jalepenos.

Of course there are some of the Italian cheeses...Mozzarella, Parmesan, Romano and Ricotta....can't live without pizza and lasagna!

And you can't forget Process Cheese for a classic grilled cheese on Wonder Bread and Cheese Curds for Poutine!

Then there's Philly Cream Cheese for Cheesecakes and Mascarpone for Tiramisu! Yum!



And then here's me at the end of the list with an upset tummy because I'm allergic to dairy! Snarf!

We have been getting cheese from a new co-op called Natural Farms out of Madison Wisconsin----just got a HUGE 3 and 1/4 lb block of Amish blue cheese for only 11.00 (awesome)and a 7 lb of aged swiss for only 25.00---great place for cheese! All organic---check out their website and you will be most pleased I assure you! As for my favorite it has got to be parmesano regiano---hands down---there's NOTHING like sittin' in de' ol' hot tub under the beautiful Michigan stars with a big wedge of it taking nibbles and sipping on a glass of Lelanau cherry wine to down it with---a taste sensation fer sure!! (there is also a locally famous cheddar that we buy called Boonescheese---it is Pinconning cheddar that is aged and it has a real secret recipe that has been handed down for lots of years---it is really well known in Michigan------THAT is pretty awesome along with a nice burgandy-----(yehaa)

I love almost all cheeses. Have to have Feta for Greek salads! Goat cheese HAS to be in a recipe and not eaten on its own. Blue cheese on salads or in a spread on bread. And extra sharp cheddar with crackers and wine....delicious!! What would Italian food or onion soup be without cheese? I have to admit I don't care for smoked cheese. It always tastes like someone rubbed it in an ashtray to me. But Hubby loves it.

Pink, what is Poutin?

Mac, I will definitely have to check out that website. Sounds like you got some great deals!!

We have french fries covered in gravy here (Oklahoma). But, I've never heard of topping with cheese curds too. Sometimes they will add some fried onion rings on top of the gravy. It's more common around here to see french fries covered with chili and cheese. Kinda makes your arteries clog just thinking about it, huh?

Oh man...fries, gravy AND rings together? LOL! I have a thing for Taco Bell's Supreme Fries...fries with beans (or meat) "cheese sauce" (whatever that stuff really is - lol), tomatoes, green onions and lots of their hot taco sauce. Absolute junk with no redeeming qualities, but I love it!

I'm Jealous Pink. We do not have fries at our Taco Bell's. We can only get those toppings on the tortilla chips as Nachos Supreme. I bet it is so much better on fries.

I have actually ran across your famous cheese curd topped fries on some TV show that I cannot recall. I would never forget such a novel thing as that. I bet they are great too.

I went to the Whole Foods Market today to get some cheese, but was most thrilled with the butter from the Czech Republic that I bought for the bargain price of $1.99. It is going to grace my Easter table.
