Wow, I really want to try this salad, one question tho. I don't think I can get that cheese where I live, could you describe what kind of cheese it is, so I can find a replacement for it :) Great photo too.

hi Thomas, where do you live?
ReplyDeleteIt's quite a sweet aged cheese
this is the cheese on wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Leicester
or other descriptions:
Red Leicester is a russet red hard pressed cheese which will be sold at anything from 3 months to 12 months of age. The traditionally made wheels tend to be firmer and drier but have a friable texture and a slightly sweet mellow flavour that becomes stronger as the cheese matures. The block made cheeses are moister and are ideal for slicing and have a slightly sweet aftertaste and a creamy texture.
Hey David,
ReplyDeleteI live in Denmark. I'll have a look around for it, I might be able to at least get something similar. It could be sold under a different name here.
Thanks for the info :)
