It felt like a bit like a drug deal, my cheese run today. A large amount of money in exchange for a several unmarked boxes of goods. In actual fact it was all completely above board and I’m just doing my bit to help French cheese producers and dealers in these difficult times. Bleu d’Auvergne, Brie, Brillat-Savarin, Crème Fraîche, Délice, Goat’s Curd, Chorizo, Boquerones en vinagre. We’re going to be eating well this month!
As renowned 19th French food writer said, “A dinner which ends without cheese is like a beautiful woman with only one eye”.
