Stuffed Cheeses: Delicious or Disgusting?
I think sometimes a stuffed cheese can be okay! I remember long ago eating a cheese that had mustard seeds in it and it was pretty awesome!

I love the farmer's market at PSU! Too bad it's only on Saturdays - I always work on the weekends. Boo!
This loosks really familiar... didn't they show this commercial a few (2-3?) years ago?
If it wasn't this exact one, then it was very similar. maybe the guy didn't blow up in the end, but I think he might have.
Niku Jaga - Japanese meat and potato
According to my mother and grandpernts, Ajinomoto even used to advertise that their msg even helped to make you smarter. (Mmm, brain food!)
My mac'n'cheese is sauteed onion and cheddar in the bechamel on the inside, and then it must be sprinkle cheese (from the grren can) on top. And the noodles must be pasta shells. It's right tasty!
With applesauce. It's the only way I can eat either one of those things, and only once in a rare while.
When I was little it looked to me like japanese-style curry rice. Cottage cheese as rice, and the brownish applesauce as curry. Mmmm...
A few things:
1. These sounds amazing!
Keshi Yena, from Curacao: Stuffed (hollowed-out) Edam cheese with ground beef or shredded chicken, tomatoes, onions, garlic, bell pepper, olives, capers, parsley, chiles, raisins, and eggs.
Queso Relleno, from the Yucatan: hollowed-out Edam or Gouda cheese stuffed with spicy minced pork or beef, mixed with raisins, olives, almonds, and spices, then steamed until the stuffing is runny. Served in slices with a cream sauce.
2. I think there has been some confusion re "stuffed cheese". As far as I know, the delicious goat cheese-cranberry combination at TJ's is not as much a "stuffed cheese" as a composition of the two.
3. pineapple bits + cheese = gross
Somerdale's Harlech a Welsh Cheddar with Horseradish and Parsley is an augument in itself for the merits of stuffed cheese. Cheddar and Horseradish go well together. This cheese is great with ale.
plain cheese for me, please.
once in paris my friends and i bought a cheese that had been soaked in calvados. we had a very light dinner in anticipation of this amazing treat {actually i thought it sounded really yucky, but i felt too unsophisticated to say so, since my friends were either europeans or americans living in paris and were anxious to try it}. it was so inedible that i stopped after the first bite and my friends gave up soon after.
I once saw Swiss with bits of rye in it and that kind of peaked my interest. That's all it did for me.
Gross! I hate the cheeses flavored with truffle shavings! I think a good cheese should be able to stand on its own without gimicky flavorings.
Here's an amazing combination; fresh goat cheese piped into peppedew peppers from South Africa.
Also Gorgonzola Dolce stuffed into figs and put under the broiler for a few minutes.
I love white stilton with lemon peel. Alone it is an interesting, if slightly weird, combo but paired with an acidic, citrusy sauvignon blanc it is truly wonderful.
I don't buy too many "stuffed" cheeses, but I do really love Cotswold cheese and I don't think it'd be the same without the chives!
I recently had an amazing goat cheese that was stuffed with roasted garlic and wrapped in a grape leaf. I couldn't really taste the grape leaf, but the garlic flavor was infused throughout the cheese and it was delicious.
I love stiltons with fruit-- mango-ginger stilton, strawberry stilton. Yum.
