Except for soft, high
moisture cheeses such
as cottage and Neuf
chatel, cheeses should
be served at room
temperature to bring
out their individual
flavors and textures.
Take harder cheeses out
of the refrigerator about
one hour before you plan
to serve them; and
softer cheeses, 20 to 30
minutes before.
Having trouble cut
ting cheese? Try a
cheese wire. It’s a fine
gauge wire with a
wooden or metal wire at
each end. You can cut
all but the hardest
cheese this way. The
wire is excellent for
cutting crumbly
cheeses, like Blue
cheese or Gorgonzola,
that tend to stick to a
knife blade.
Add a tasty garnish to
fruit salads or apple pie
with Cheddar cheese
curls. Using a vegetable
parer or cheese plane,
shave cheese into strips
and roll around finger.
If necessary, secure
with toothpicks, then
chill.
