The greatest cheese on earth has been discovered. It was previously believed to be, a still strong runner up, creamy gorgonzola, but this new entrant is the true holder of the title.
I give you:
Couer de Lion, Pié d' Angloys.
Which I am informed, and my French confirms (ish) means "feet of the English".
Heaven in a circular box.
It tells me on said circular box:
"Created by Cistercian Monks in the 14th century, Pié d'Angloys is an important part of French gastronomic tradition. Creamy and full bodied with a hint of honey, this unique cheese is a great addition to a cheeseboard or simply served with crusty bread"
Yum. In actual fact it tastes like a most palatable marriage of Brie and Dairylea. Yumptious.
Unlike most champion cheeses, this is not expensive and is available in the supermarket. Huzzah for magnificent cheeses and the discovery thereof!!
I like cheese.
ReplyDeleteOn the East Coast train you can get a cheese and ham panini which contains some gorgonzola and has wallace + gromit on the label.
I also discovered this cheese recently and totally agree with you. Genoius in a small box. M&S also do their own version at the same price as the Couer De Lion Brand
