Earlier today I was in Asda and decided to sample something from their special selection that I highlighted last month. There were three small and similarly packaged cheeses that caught my eye, so of course I bought all three.
These will be properly compared in the upcoming third edition of the Corral but for now I’ll provide the full descriptions to whet your appetite.
Farmhouse Red Leicester with Black Smoked Pepper – smooth and smokey
{A simple description but it still sounds appetizing.}
Margherita Cheddar – with sweet cherry tomatoes and a sprinkle of oregano
{I can imagine the oregano being tasteless and only included as an excuse for the gimmicky name.}
Wensleydale with Cranberry & White Chocolate – mild and creamy with cranberries and white chocolate
{When it sounds this decadent, it doesn’t matter if the description is a copy of the name.}
But these weren’t the only cheese products I purchased! There were also two types of burgers combined with different cheeses.
Succulent British Beef Blended with Rich Wyke Farm Cheddar and a Sprinkle of Chives
Succulent Aberdeen Angus Beef With Tangy d’Ambert Cheese, Toasted Onions and Balsamic Vinegar, Finished with Cracked Black Pepper
Will the cheese flavours be noticeable amongst all of the umami-ness and fat? I’ll be sure to let you know when I find out.
