Cheese of the Week

Well we had two cheeses last week to report on.

The 1st was a New York white cheddar, not sure who the producer was. It was a very good middle of the road cheddar, not too strong and not too mild. Margaret loved it both on sandwiches, with crackers, and toasted on rice cakes. I didn't have that much of it, but it did have a very nice taste and was so different after all of the European cheeses we've been eating.

The 2nd was Parrano a cheese out of Holland. It's a hard cheese and good for shredding on things like pasta, potatoes, etc. It's a good cheese though maybe a little oily for our tastes. It has a nice mild taste and melts nice and smooth.
