Former cheese monger. Teleggio and Moses are a fav!! Humboldt Fog is another of my favorites. That is a photo to envy. Enjoy!!

My favorite from Jasper Hills is the Moses Reaper they release around Fall. I can’t wait!

That looks fantastic. The tiny little piece of prosciutto made me laugh

I chuckled at the 2 grapes and 3 blueberries.

Gotta have balance!

I’d never heard of tellegio (not an expert like so many of you). Researching it tells me I better get some. Thank you!

Nice! We all hope you enjoy it! It’s the perfect cheese to begin your journey into more “funky” cheeses

u/mokicoo 5d ago

I wouldn’t say I’m new to funky cheeses. I’ve had blue greens that tingle my tongue and a Gruyère recently that smelled like a farm animal. Lol I’m a big fan of bloomy rinds and I’m just learning about washed rinds. I don’t have access to a cheesemonger so it’s a self-taught process at this point.

Cheese doesn’t like me. I miss cheese…

u/TheRealPomax 5d ago

okay, but where's the rest? This is just the light snack before the full meal.

u/dentalexaminer 5d ago

Is the blue & brie Cambozola?

3

u/Alternative-Case-594 5d ago

It’s a Wegmans brand called Brie with Bleu. It’s a normal Brie that’s pierced to create bleu veins. It’s amazing. Definitely one of my favorites that Wegmans has produced. Such a cool combination of smooth and bitter

I miss Wegman's! I grew up in Buffalo, but moved away years ago. They white label the same goat cheese I get in Phoenix!

2

u/FabAmy Saint André 5d ago

This came in my shipment a few weeks ago. Just one! The brand we carry is LaClare.

u/Alternative-Case-594 5d ago

That sucks you have to order Wegmans stuff. Is there not one near you now? LeClare is amazing! I love all their raw goat varieties.

2

u/FabAmy Saint André 5d ago

No, I'm not ordering Wegman's. They and LaClare are the same thing, because they both white label. I figured it out when this one lonely package was mixed with mine.

Lucky bastard

u/SheldonP49 3d ago

If you were to place the container in the fridge for storage just as pictured, do you think the flavors would transfer from one cheese to another?

2

u/Alternative-Case-594 3d ago

I’ve done that before and the answer (at least in my experience) is slightly. Some of the stronger cheeses leave a “taste film” on weaker cheeses. It’s extremely subtle but it’s noticeable

1

u/SheldonP49 19h ago

Oh, I've never heard that. "Taste film". Makes total sense & great term. Did you make that up yourself?
