Title: First Caerphilly
Post by: ezabel on May 18, 2016, 06:46:17 PM
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 ;D

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.
