Has anyone tried Cave Aged Cheese, and does it need to be stored in a cave?
Yes I eat cave aged Gruyere and Emmenthal cheese and a cave for storage would be brilliant since a fridge is too cold and a room to warm. If you dont have a cave take the fridge but take it out one hour before consumtion…
Do you know any recipes using Halloumi cheese?
Thank you.
They all sound so lovely, thank you!
a really nice one is if you halve some cherry tomatoes and heat with a little olive oil and balsamic vinegar in your preferred quantities Then cook a ciabatta and cut in half lengthways. On each half of the ciabatta, layer the tomatoes and then a few slices of halloumi. Pop under the grill of a few minutes and voila! only takes like 10-15 mins so perfect if you're in a rush!
How long can cheddar cheese be aged, i.e. what is the oldest cheddar cheese that is commercially sold?
I am a former chef and most commonly in the US and canada, Old/Sharp cheese is aged 8-12 months, I have had 3 and 5 years quite alot, and evena 7 year old white Cheddar some years back, in the UK it has to be aged a minimum of 1 year to be labelled as old, they do not colour it there.
Unlike the milder cheese, cheddar is not as moist when aged it gets crumbly like parmesan and feta. Also to keep the mold from forming they wash the cheese with a slat water solution, some cheese when this is done created a hard outer coating or rind like with some European cheeses.
where can you buy halloumi cheese?
I tried all the major supermarkets, but cant seem to find them. BTW I live in london.
Northern Cyprus…..or you could just go to Sainsburys or Tesco. They sell it with all the foreign cheeses, you get what you pay for aswell so it's quite often worth paying a little bit extra =].
