First Caerphilly

[ezabel]

Having some Gouda's aging, but wanting to actually try eating one of my cheeses sooner rather than later, I decided to make a Caerphilly, liking the fact its ready to go in a few weeks.  Here's how the progress went.  The cheese is currently in the brine.

So a nice firm feel to the cheese, I was hungry, and the Other Half wanted to sample, so I opened it up today.  Went wonderfully with quince and apple jelly and a nice full shiraz.  Looking forward to testing it melted on toast for breakfast tomorrow

An envious cheese for your fine cheese!

Melted on toast next morning with poached eggs.  Nice melted texture

I want to have a grilled cheese sandwich now.  My caerphilly is a little over 2 weeks old, I think I want to wait another two weeks before cutting into it.

Cheers

Looks good in the round and on toast. Have a cheese from me.
