blue cheese and steak work perfectly together

blue cheese is great with any kind of carrot or squash or brocolli soup...mmmm

i love steak and i love blue cheese but together I just want to be focusing on one flavor. so i dont like blue cheese on my steak. i like it on my burger though because burger is lower quality beef.

that's a good point.

though if im going to say, outback steakhouse, id go with the blue cheese.

if im cooking it at home, i know how to fit it to personal preference.

blue cheese burger is brill though, havent had one for a while, i used to chomp one with raw onion on it.

when i eat blue cheese, generally the cheese is the focus.

i might get some good bread. polish sourdough bread.

optionally some small tomatoes on the vine and fresh basil.

but the funk is centre stage.

edit: and now i want a hunk of roquefort.

i have oakwood, smoked gouda, a big chunk of parmegiano

hmmm maybe some brie

i'll get back to you watmm

i definately wouldnt crumble high quality blue cheese...more of a mediocre guy

my favorite = petri dish cheese

sometimes you need an offset - like you can get some gorgonzola that's fucking industrial. less common, unfortunately, is roquefort like that

both are very salty... if your cheese is hardcore, add razor thin slices of tomato

and finely chopped basil. and the good bread is *essential*

but maybe have some sort of indigestion shit ready. at least if you're me.

if i feel the need to add some meat, it's generaly good salami.

but then *really* have some sort of indigestion shit ready. at least if you're me.

how, i jsut got a great idea\\

gonna occasionally eat a toasted tomato and cheese sandwich goddamn thats BRILLIANT

thank you for the idea.

crap, i have some fucking double gloucester

for those of you who have never had double gloucester

it's the cheese equivalent of having niggas come over

for forties and blunts

is that good or bad? that phrase could go both ways

good as in im chillin with my bros poppin OE's

bad as in i am providing these cheapskates with booze and preciously rare weed.

Carr's Melts complement blues quite nicely. I've yet to find a biscuit here in the states to fill the void. Mrs. Dob and I tend to enjoy our Stilton with a nice red wine, some grapes and other fruit de jour.

i bought half a sheep cheese (400g) from a local producer the other day. they make a great sheep's cheese that has been aged until it's crumbly and slightly acidic. excellent! the first dutch sheep cheese i've had that can match the depth of flavor of the other local aged cow/goat cheeses. on the way back i stopped in at the smokery and had me a pound of finely-sliced smoked beef shank. then, last stop, the bakery, for a loaf of walnut-sourdough. whipped up a MEAN supper with just that, some rucola, and a nice belgian ale on the side!

and play old-school nintendo?

as soon as i get over this lingering cold i'm going to treat myself to the most expensive blue i can find and then i'm going to fuck it.

I'm reasonably impressed with the quality of the Trader Joe's branded Stilton, but since its branded as Stilton it has to be good, since there's only six dairies that have the Stilton-producing license, according to Wikipedia? So I guess it's a re-brand?

Anyway, good mothafuckin cheese.

Edit: the one I got has the funkiest looking rind I've ever seen on a Stilton. It looks like what hell would look like if hell was delicious.

i've had utterly crap stilton before, so i think it's definitely possible

I just got a wedge of bleu de Bocage... it's a goat's milk blue from south of france i believe. fucking mind blowing. it's really up there on my all-time favs. when i tasted it in the shop i liked it better than the roquefort they had. i love blue cheese winters.

i'm dreaming of a blue cheese Christmas...

This is my sort of thread

kinda looks like a Brie or Camembert blue cheese.

I have this stuff that the smallest little crumb makes my mouth feel like it's rotting several hours afterward even with multiple water/mouth wash rinsings. Got in a bit over my head I'm afraid.
