Also- cheese, before or after pudding?

Most cheeseboards only have 3 / 4 cheeses though
so I was loading up with other stuff
I take your point though.

I can't work out the Jacques Rivette comment
does he make cheese in his free time? would you want to eat cheese with him (he wouldn't fit on a cheeseboard)? are you saying his films are cheesy?
-
let's talk chutneys
best to have two? one mild, one strong
say red onion / chilli
-
it makes me extremely mischievous
Canadian Jen and I drank the better part of a bottle of it after dinner back in January and we became extremely minxy- or ta least we thought we were.

With respect, i think most of you have two many cheeses on your board
Les is more because your palate will get totally obverwhelmed if there are too many flavours. I think you need to make a few sacrifices and stick with your choices. You can always have a different selection next time.
But what do I know.
japes this'd this -
Can never have too many cheeses.
LEFTOVERS TOMORROW!

Tasted Waterloo as an alternative yesterday
but was unimpressed, and opted for good old Tunworth instead. Slghtly underripe when I bought it, so should be perfect by Saturday.

Not going to include meat items here, that's for my charcuterie board.
Stichleton
Comte
Taleggio
Stinking Bishop
A very stong cheddarThrow in some Jacob's Cream Crackers, some poppy seed crackers, a good pickle and some grapes and we are done.
And port. Lots of port.
-
leftovers? WHAT ARE THEY?
(does suzy like cheese? the pugs love it more than anything but they're not relaly allowed it. Zara cries when you put the cheese back in the fridge.)
-
3 on your day-to-day cheeseboard
5 for a special occasion

I've not given her cheese
My parents are ANNOYINGLY strict on what she has. They do make her steak for treats. WTF. i'm sure she'd love it but she eats her own poo so I don't think she has the best palate in the world.
-
stinking bishop is deeply bland imo
if it were called gabrat or chorkel nobody would eat it
-
Cheese is really, really bad for you.
So i probably wouldn't eat a whole cheeseboard to myself.
-
fuckin
black truffle pecorino over and over and over again

In my world, I agree
But the French say differently and I am of French stock.
