3) Wine, wine and more wine! …Or maybe a little port
As a nation, the UK loves a tipple! So why not use the excuse “it pairs perfectly with the cheese!”. With a diverse selection of wines available and so many different guides on pairings, feel free to select your personal favourites for a truly enhanced experience of delight. Although I must say I do love a good Merlot.
4) Fruits & Nuts
Arguably the most well known fruit to go alongside cheese is grapes, be that the physical fruit or our beloved form mentioned earlier, WINE! There are a range of fruits which pair nicely with cheese, maybe you want to make it like a traditional ploughmans and add some fresh apples. Crisp and slightly tart apples provide a refreshing contrast to the creamy and savoury nature of cheeses, especially cheddars. Quince is a less heard of fruit but it makes a really tasty preserve and it just so happens we have a version available through our online store. Pairing nuts with cheese can create a delightful contrast of textures and flavours. There are so many varieties to choose from, be that walnuts, pistachios or cashews.
5) Charcuterie
Why not add some cured meats to your cheeseboard and turn it into a charcuterie board! When pairing olives with cheese, consider the saltiness of the olives and how it interacts with the cheese. You can also incorporate herbs, olive oil, or other accompaniments to further enhance the pairing experience.
6) Other Nibbles
It’s your cheeseboard and ultimately you can add whatever you’d like to it! Some other suggestions are pickled vegetables like pickled onions, or maybe your favourite brand of crisps!
