Lunch, Saturday April 8: miscellaneous nibbles as pictured.
We recently visited family in Ohio. Near Alexis' hometown is kinda the heart of cheese country in Ohio. Being cheese fanatics we go on little cheese binge while we are there. For the most part we really could get the same cheeses at home, but there are a couple of varieties that we have only seen there. We always get some local swiss and there is a horseradish cheddar that has a particular texture unlike others we have tried. Most we have sampled have a gritty texture. The one we buy there is very smooth and melts well. There is one particular variety that I have not seen anywhere else, Pinconing. It is a colby type so it has a mild cheddar character and a little sourness. It is really good as the star of a grilled cheese.
Oh yeah, there is the smoked habanero cheddar. . .
