Cheese

[ponder]

Is Butler's good? I can only recall seeing it once on the shelves. Will check it out if it is.

Yip, give it a try. I like it more than the others.

Vintage Irish Cheddar is also pretty good. Kerrygold, I think. It's in black packaging.

Would love to visit Ireland. Just seems so quaint.

Yeah if you call street brawls at pub closing time in Dublin town centre every Friday night quaint sure...

I buy my cheese from the Irene village market.

Cities are cities!

I was thinking rolling green hills, stone cottages, grey seas, rain slashing down .... small little town pub.

Don't get me wrong I love Ireland. I remember waking up in North Ireland on New Year's at my friend's house and the entire village below was blanketed with snow.. That the kind of thing you're on about hey.

At Fruit/Veg they have a 12month matured Cheddar cheese with a black skin and imported from Germany. I have never ever tasted any cheese like this one in my life!
They don't always have the cheese in stock but when they do have it, it sells within hours!

Everyday cheese - Parmalat Strong Cheddar / Extra Mature


Once a month I go moggy at Checkers with their '400 cheeses' and buy a variety. I've had some nice ones so far with the Red Leicester currently in the lead as favorite

Woolworths sells small containers (20g) of cream cheese with black pepper for R 5 each. Cute for picnics or "padkos"

I've found one recipe out of 10 so far with some beaten egg yolks.

EDIT - ok I've found a few now but the vast majority don't have egg.

Are ye doubting mah Welsh Great Great Grandmother? .... she will have your soul!

That's how she made it and that's how it got passed down, it really does set it apart from just being glorified cheese on toast though, you should give it a go.
