I have a few different cheeses at any given time. Right now I have a small log of goat cheese, a wedge of parm, some extra sharp cheddar, cream cheese and mozzarella cheese.

Just cream cheese and shredded parmesan. I love cheese but try to buy it the day I intend to eat it. My husband's been cutting down due to health reasons so, sadly, it has become a rarer treat.

i meant "shaved" parmesan, not shredded.
devaleena at 9:26PM on 09/02/08
Right now I have: provolone, havarti, brie, mozzarella, a hunk of Pecorino Romano, gorgonzola, boursin and some cream cheese. My Other Half is lactose intolerant, mind you, so it's all mine. I am, regretfully, out of smoked Gouda right now. Speaking of which, brie, mozzarella, provolone, havarti and Pecorino Romano are the ones I'm never out of.

I try to buy my cheese within a week of when im going to eat it. that said the only cheese i keep in the fridge is cream cheese and fresh moz.! the refrigerator does nothing but kill the flavor of good cheese! wrap your cheese tightly in wax or parchment paper and store in a dark, temp. stable place. remember if your buying good unpasturized cheese(and you should be) its a living thing, dont kill it!

We usually have mozzarella, cheddar or Parmesan. Sometimes we have Muenster or Feta cheese. I would love to have gouda or Fontina cheese but it's harder to find kosher versions of these cheeses and we keep a kosher kitchen.

I'm happy to have found cheesaholics too!
I can't name them all...it would require running back & forth from the living room to the kitchen to inventory...although off the top of my head I know I have colby longhorn, sharp cheddar, feta, fresh mozzarella, cream cheese, blue, pecorino romano, smoked gouda, goat cheese.....I'm sure there's something else lurking in there! We've been entertaining alot lately...that's the only time I can have that much cheese in the house....somehow I married a non cheese eater!!!

4% cottage cheese and provolone. Does blue cheese dressing count?
JEP at 7:38PM on 09/03/08
I agree with you Mepolo, I lo-o-o-v-e cheese! Sadly, as I get older, I find myself a little bloaty after a cheese binge. I don't care; I'll die happy!
Right now, in the frig I have Mozzarella, provolone, asiago, romano, parmesan and monterey jack. I bought some small round personal sized foccachia bread that I like to use to make vegetable pizza. I slice them in half for two personal pizzas. I put the sliced side, buttered, or sprayed with butter-flavored Pam on the outside. I sprinkle Oregano on it, this way when cooking, it gets nice and buttery and crunchy on the bottom. I saute vegetables in a little olive oil: fresh cloves of garlic thinly sliced, sliced mushrooms, long strips of red, green, and yellow peppers (the colors are beautiful), long strips of onions, a little salt, pepper, oregano. Pour tomato sauce on bread, spread a nice amount of sauteed vegetables around bread. Add large chunks of whole peeled tomatoes, they taste delicious hot and with the spices and cheese cooked into it. Sometimes I add sliced olives, or anything else I may have in the house, and depending on how I feel. Sometimes I just go vegan, and sometimes I'll add sliced sausages, bacon,pepperoni, etc. Also, somewhere between the first few layers, I sprinkle grated parmesan, or, romano, or asiago cheese, or a combo. of all three.It's up to you. Gives it a cheesy flavor throughout the pie. Now, It can get really high, it's a meal in itself! I top it with a combo. of shredded mozzarella and provolone. Just heat it all in 450-500 oven and enjoy! You'll have to use a knife and fork, guests and family love it!
Here's a question for you guys, I was told that provolone was actually better for pizza then mozzerella. What do you think? I'd appreciate you guys' expertise; as believe it or not, this is just something I did one day and thought it tasted pretty good. Maybe there's a few tips you can give me to make it even better. Thanks.

I love cheese too, but unfortunately do not currently have much in my fridge. At the moment I've got some parmesan, halloumi and some smoked applewood cheddar - I've just finished off my port salut and ardrahan...
Anneli at 9:04AM on 09/04/08
wow! how does everyone have so much cheese without going bad? I admit to buying lots of cheese but I can never use it all, so I try to stick to max 3 cheeses at once. (Parmasean doesn't count, we ALWAYS have it no matter what) Right now, parrano, queso fresco and cream cheese.
blankplate at 10:19AM on 09/04/08
Without looking: baby swiss, pepperjack, shredded cheddar, shredded mozzarella, parmesan, American, and a tub of gorgonzola.
TaraTot at 1:44PM on 09/04/08
