Taste of the Week. Kilmeaden Fully Mature White Cheddar

Taste of the Week

Kilmeaden Fully Mature White Cheddar

An enforced change of shopping habits over the past week or two led to a few different products on the table. One, Kilmeaden’s Fully Mature White Cheddar, was a very tasty surprise and its intense and distinctive flavour went down very well indeed.

This aromatic and rich cheese, made by Glanbia in Waterford, is our Taste of the Week. And, if you’d like to take it a stage further, Kilmeaden have a few recipes on their website, including this Ratatouille & Cheese one here. 

Our Taste of the Week has been typically matured for 10 months and comes in a handy resealable pack. Handy size too at 200g. If it’s this good at 10 months, then the Grader’s Choice (which is matured for 2 years) must be worth a go. I’ll have to keep an eye for that and perhaps take a stab at the recipe above.

Plate full of colour

Nice bit of colour on the lunch plate this sunny day, thanks mainly to the Toons Bridge Dairy/Real Olive Company. 

Excellent delivery service from the online shop and we enjoyed these semi-sun-dried tomatoes, the mixed olives, the sliced Jamon Serrano reserva. The Mozzarella (Fior di latte) didn't survive very long once the package was opened but there's much more to look forward over the next few days. The rocket's from the back garden, the cheese a mature Kilmeaden.
