    I’m using stock images but I am always on the lookout for new cheeses to try whenever I go to the store. Credit to “Cheese.com” for the cheese image and cheese facts. If any of you know some cheeses that I haven’t done yet I would love some input!

    Here is your daily cheese facts: Bleu de Graven is a delicious, semi-firm blue cheese from Holland, made in a similar style to a classic Dutch gouda—with the addition of a robust, pleasantly tangy blue vein. The base cheese has a buttery mouthfeel, a nutty-sweet flavour with a balanced, savoury character and mild salt content. Bleu de Graven has a medium blue presence, pleasantly sharp, somewhat “spicy”, without being too barny or funky tasting. The manufacturer suggests that this cheese, with its creamy-yet-firm consistency—sure to yield and tantalizing gooey, rich melt—is particularly well suited to use in hot dishes such as lasagnas or on top of pizza.

    Also as a note: I post my daily cheese here as well as in my r/dailycheese subreddit.

  2. This is cheese is GREAT! I buy it regularly from a Dutch guy at the weekly market (I’m in Germany), and it is actually the only place where I saw this cheese.
