Directions
Our Black River 2-Year Cheddar, Smoked Gouda, and Honey cheddar are a trio are the perfect accompaniment to the fruit and flavors of the season.- Place the Smoked Gouda and 2-Year cheddar together on one side of your board. Place the Honey Cheddar separately. Shave the 2-Year Cheddar to highlight its sharper flavour. Put a small dish of Raspberry compote between the cheeses.
- Add a medley of grilled peaches, cherries, raspberries, summer strawberries and shaved melon on the opposite side of the board. Put a chunk of honeycomb beside the fruit for extra flair and flavour.
- Use cured meats like pepper crusted salami, smoked speck, and sliced bresaola.
- Arrange the meats near your fruit.
- Finish your board off with a selection of bread sticks and crackers, placed around the sliced cheeses. Fill in any gaps with fresh strawberries and raspberries. Garnish melon with fresh mint.
- A crisp, slightly hoppy craft beer or fruit based cocktail—like a daiquiri—will complete the experience.
