I’m probably going to get money to start a lab at work! So we went to Ripple in Cleveland Park for a snack: cheeses with honey, apricot jam, and pecans with bacon.
Kinderhook Creek – sheep’s milk cheese from Old Chatham Sheepherding Company, a soft, spreadable cheese.
Pleasant Ridge Reserve – cow’s milk from Uplands Cheese in Dodgeville, WI. Made in the Alpine tradition similar to Gruyere and Beaufort.
Mitibleu – a rare Spanish roquefort-style sheep’s blue, from Mitica in the La Mancha region of Spain. Apparently difficult to find here. Very good, creamy.
