A mighty Cheese for the Weekend Board this week:

A mighty Cheese for the Weekend Board this week:

@ashcombe_cheese, Gloucestershire. An english Morbier-style, with a hazelnutty mellowness.

@colstonbassettdairy Shropshire Blue, Nottinghamshire. Bringing vibrant colour to any cheeseboard, Shropshire Blue is a similar to classic Stilton, but has a slightly softer texture and more gentle flavour.

@montgomerys_cheddar, Somerset. A most traditional Cheddar, with the iconic buttery/flaky texture and complex, savoury taste.

@fromageriebadoz Vacherin Mont d'Or,Pontarlier, Franche-Comte. Once upon a time, most cheeses would be produced seasonally, to best suit the milk and to meet the different needs of the farmers. Now, Vacherin Mont d'Or is one of the last truly seasonal cheeses - but boy is it worth waiting for!

@whitelakecheese Driftwood, Somerset. One of our favourite goat's cheeses, Driftwood is lactic and fresh in the middle, with a sweeter, gooey breakdown under the geotrichum rind.

@thetealadyuk Rhubarb and Fig Chutney is one of our lovely new accompaniments. Rich and molasses sweet, with a hint of bright acidity from the Rhubarb, it's simply superb with cheese, but outstanding with that Vacherin!

@petersyard Charcoal Sourdough Crispbreads, a simple but delicious biscuit to carry any cheese.

First taste of the season #vacherinmontdoraop. For me, this is when these cheeses are at their best: the paste is meltingly smooth throughout, with an unctuous little breakdown under the rind. The flavour is yoghurty and light, with plenty of indulgent richness but without the sometimes overwhelming punchiness they develop later in the season. There's a resinous note too, which brings to mind walks through alpine forests, where the smell of the sun-warmed pines fills the air.
Brings me over all poetic.

Introspective, today. Anniversaries can be hard.

Introspective, today.

Anniversaries can be hard. Five years ago, my big sister passed away. We didn't always have the best relationship, but I was lucky enough to have time to tell her how proud I was (and still am) of her. Jenn was immensely tough, and had a passion and drive that led her to some extraordinary accomplishments.

Driving through the lanes this morning I wondered what she would have thought of The Truckle Truck. She would, I think, have been delighted. She would also have thought me more than a little bonkers, but most of all, I hope she would be proud. It was, after all, the memory of her strength and drive that helped me take the plunge and start this journey.

The skies are clear, so the map is getting an outing! It's a bit of a squeeze, but now you can see where your favourite cheeses come from.

Speaking of favourites, the clever chaps and chapesses at @felthamsfarm have been hard at work creating a new, giant version of their Renegade Monk cheese. Being a larger cheese allows it to mature more gradually and develop even greater complexity - you still get all the powerful flavours of the classic washed-rind cheese, but there's a fruitiness too.
