Recipes:
What is better than deep fried, warm and gooey Camembert? Serve as a starter or as smaller wedges for parties with a side of Cartwright and Butler Tomato Chilli Chutney and they’ll be the star of the show. Just ensure you make enough! Full recipe here.
There are plenty of cheeses that are perfection simply baked in the oven. The trick is finding the right dish to bake it in, adding the right extra flavours for each unique cheese, and of course creating the ideal dipping accompaniments. Here’s a recipe for oven baked Camembert.
Leek and Camembert Risotto is excellent as a starter, lunch or even main course.

Pure Porn!
My amazing Dad got me this box for my birthday last week and, as I was saving it to have with my cheese-buddy, it sat, unopened, in my fridge for 5 days, slowly growing more and more deliciously pongy until we finally cracked it open last night. What can I say? We were blown away! These cheeses were pure cheese porn for us; ripe, smelly, liquid and runny and most importantly a party in the mouth! The Camembert was, we agreed, the best we had ever tasted…the perfect texture and truly delicious. The Langres won the prize for pure ‘blow your socks off’ bliss. The Chaource was just one we wanted to eat and eat and eat until it was all gone as it was so creamy and tasty (and seemed to go best with the wine we had picked up with no thought to how well it would go with cheese at all!) and the Munster went best with the crackers so the whole box was a winner. We honestly could not fault it! We managed to not scoff the lot so the rest is in a sealed box in my fridge, getting more pungent and tempting by the day…if no one hears from me for a while, I’m probably in a cheese coma whilst my senses recover (especially from the Langres). Thank you, Pong (and my Dad), for my best birthday present this year! I look forward to trying more boxes in due course 🙂

Absolutely stunning cheeses! I was lucky to win some of these in a Bonne Maman/Pong competition and they are superb!
