L’Affiné au Chablis

What’s it like? L’Affiné au Chablis is a cow’s milk cheese with a flavour that is mild with a fresh, floral and fruity aroma. This is a seriously gorgeous cheese. 

Where is L’Affiné au Chablis from? Full fat soft Cheese made from pasteurised cow’s milk.

Ingredients: Pasteurized Cow’s milk (Origin: France), Salt, ferments, Chablis (traces). It comes as a 200g circular whole cheese in a wooden casing.

Recipes:

This cheese tart is a variation from chef Ludo Lefebvre’s original creation, we like the balance of salty ham and sweet apple with the pungent and rich Époisses de Bourgogne AOC. We scatter cheddar and a little sugar over the top for extra decadence.

There ain’t no party bread like a Pong Party Bread! The perfect centre piece to a feast, where all your friends can dig in and pull a piece off. This is our Pong version as it uses the pungent and spicy Epoisses de Bourgogne AOC.

This Smoked haddock with an Epoisses sauce recipe is a creation of head chef Paul Capener for the Vive le Cheese competition.

Alternative cheeses:

Epoisses de Bourgogne AOC is an awesomely pungent French washed rind cheese. The taste is surprisingly meaty and wonderfully spicy.

Langres AOC is a little beauty: quite small and unassuming but packing a punch of complex flavours.
