Date Posted: 16:52:48 01/01/26 Thu Hello Jerry, Before I proceed, I would like to wish you a very happy new year. May your bottom stay nice and white. Now, Professor Lucas is apparently very concerned that you think cheeseboards come in separate little plastic packets! He wishes me to correct your misconception at once and end the great distress it is causing him. I can't find the specific post he is referring to, so I have decided to start a new thread. A cheeseboard is a wooden platter holding assorted cheeses, which the diners share. Cheese is usually served at the end of a meal, either as an alternative to dessert or in addition to it. Diners sometimes cut their own choices of cheese with cheese knives provided or the waiter/waitress does it for them. There are crackers served with it too, either on the platter with the cheese or on/in a separate container or plate. Sometimes there may even be other items like grapes, olives, chutney or even thinly sliced cold meats served with it. There are usually three to five cheeses on offer on the cheeseboard, but possibly more. At the Masonic centre, where I often dine, we usually have aged Cheddar, brie and blue Stilton. I usually ask for a bit of all three. One really good thing about it is that diners can just take what they like. If they don't care for a particular cheese, they don't have to have it. They could even decline the cheese altogether (although I find such diners to be a strange breed). I do enjoy a cheeseboard, I must admit. If it's a choice between cheese and dessert, I will often opt for the cheese. Of course, being the greedy guts I am, I prefer it if cheese is an additional course! So, I hope that clears up your confusion (if indeed you were confused). [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] |
