Quince & Damson Fruit Cheese
2* GOLD GREAT TASTE AWARD WINNER 2005.
Fruit cheeses are not Cheese but a very heavy fruit puree and known as cheeses since Georgian Times when they were eaten with Cheese! It goes well with all cheeses but is an ideal accompaniment for blue cheese.
For the more adventurous Quince and Damson Fruit Cheese marries extremely well with pheasant and duck in either a sauce or stuffing. According to producer Colin Wainwright it is even better when eaten with fruit and cream! The golden quinces that to the ancient Greeks symbolised love and happiness were brought to England by the Romns. The true quince is an exotic fruit that resembles a yellow/golden pear. It originates from the Middle East and is also grown in Australia. Quince was again popular in Elizabethan times and believed to be an aphrodisiac- a reputation it still has in the Middle East.
Lovage Herb Oatmeal Biscuits
GREAT TASTE GOLD AWARD WINNER!
A delicious biscuit with a very subtle celery flavour that is suitable for all types of cheese, especially soft cows milk cheeses
Like Lavender Lovage again is an old fashioned herb (the BBC are using our biscuits in a forthcoming documentary about 'what the Romans in Britain ate'). The plants can grow up to 6' high and when harvested and chopped into the mixes it gives a very subtle celery flavour that is delicious with all cheeses.
