Cheese: Chaumes
Country: France
Type: Cow, soft washed rind.




















So I went in today with a specific role for my cheese, to be melted over fresh beans from my garden. The lovely people at Janice Beaton hooked me up with a big chunk of Chaumes, a washed soft-rind from France. This cheese was perfect for melting over something crunchy. It melted into a smooth gooey mess over my beans, and the soft rind broke up into delicious tangy bits. The texture was delightful, but not half as lovely as the salty creamy flavour. Totally wicked cheese.
