With so many cheese options out there, it can be overwhelming to know which ones to choose. Equally important to the cheese selection are the condiments that complement them. In this blog post, we'll explore the world of our Vinofoods' top three cheeseboard condiments: Tomato & Riesling Relish, Fig, Apple & Chardonnay Chutney, and Onion, Thyme & Red Wine Jam. With these delicious and unique condiments, your cheeseboard is sure to impress even the most discerning palates.
- LET'S START WITH OUR TOMATO & RIELSING RELISH: This spicy little number will wake up your taste buds and make them sing. The sweetness of the tomato is balanced perfectly with the acidity of Riesling, and the subtle spice from the cayenne pepper will have you coming back for more. Pair it with a nutty pecorino or parmesan, and you'll have a party in your mouth that you won't forget.
- TIME TO MOVE ONTO OUR AWARD-WINNING FIG, APPLE & CHARDONNAY CHUTNEY: This sweet and tangy blend of fig and apple with a splash of Chardonnay is like a party in your mouth. Pair it with a sharp cheddar or aged gouda and you'll have a flavour explosion that will make your taste buds dance.
- FINALLY OUR ONION, THYME & RED WINE JAM: This rich and savoury jam is perfect for those who love a little bit of sophistication in their cheeseboard. Pair it with a soft and creamy brie or camembert and you'll have a match made in heaven.
A well curated grazing board can be the centrepiece of any event, and pairing it with the right condiments can definitely take it to the next level. But that's not all there is to it! Here are three additional tips to help you level up your cheeseboard game:
- VARIETY: To create a well-rounded cheeseboard, it's important to select a variety of cheeses with different textures, flavours, and milk types. Don't be afraid to mix it up with a selection of soft, hard, and blue cheeses. This will provide a range of tastes and experiences for you and your guests to enjoy.
- PAIRINGS: To elevate the flavours of your cheeseboard, incorporate a range of pairings that go beyond just condiments. Consider adding crackers, bread, nuts, and fruits in a variety of colours to create a beautiful and flavourful spread. These pairings will not only enhance the taste of your cheese but also add texture and visual interest to your cheeseboard.
- PRESENTATION: Making a cheeseboard is like creating a masterpiece - it takes practice, creativity, and a whole lot of cheese! Whether you're a seasoned cheeseboard connoisseur or a newbie, don't worry - there's always room for inspiration. A quick Google search or a scroll through Pinterest can provide endless ideas to help you craft a cheeseboard that is as beautiful as it is delicious. Remember, practice makes perfect, and the more you make cheeseboards, the easier and more enjoyable it becomes.
