Summer dinners and the return of the cheese plate.

Oh, summertime.  The nights of light dinners after a bike ride are back.  The CSA is on, and with it comes fresh veggies, and light dinners, and evenings of the cheese board!

(Photo courtesy of varmintbites.com - my plate is very carved up right now.)

Currently on the board:

  • fresh chèvre
  • double creme brie (Fromager d’Affinois)
  • Parmeggiano-Reggiano
  • aged gouda (not Prima Donna, my favorite, but still pretty good)
  • truffled cow’s milk (Sottocenere)
  • XX Sharp Cheddar (cheddar from Le Rayesville Cheese Factory, a CSA pick)
  • Cowtipper (fresh gouda from Calkins Creamery, a CSA pick)

I definitely have more cheese than most, but I love it, and it’s always nice for a nibble.  What would you have on your cheese board?
