Risotto for supper. Mushrooms, peppers and purple sprouting. Some vintage Gouda on the top. Would have lobbed some chorizo in there too but I ate it all earlier
yep that’s the great thing with risotto, can basically chuck whatever you have to hand in it. as long as it’s food of course. I’m not talking about lobbing a bag of plaster in there
I sometimes throw a bit of cheddar into the rice as it’s cooking, but not this time. I start by frying off an onion and then use fresh garlic, fresh ginger root and Bouillon to make the stock. Then season with a bit of black pepper near the end.
I’m sure it’s got a sell by date on it as it has to by law. but basically any hard cheese, as long as it’s stored properly will just get better with age.
Isn’t Gouda a bit like Edam? It’s just gone rock hard as you left uncovered and used a potato peeler to slice it on. I’d eat it FYI
yeah sort of. Gouda is sharper and drier if that makes sense. More like a hard cheese with a tangy bite, whereas Edam is a bit more middle of the road. it’s a bit like comparing a mild cheddar to a vintage cheddar.
