It was desserted.<BR/>I have always thought that Dave Faulkener is one of the best pop songmeisters around & that he hasn't been fully recognised yet-Maybe it'll come soon.<BR/><BR/>Bruny Island oyers are MY FAVOURITE OYSTERS! I am spoilt as I know that his oysters are literally just out of the water. I find it difficult to partake in any others as I know they aint just outta the water!<BR/><BR/>The Bruny Island Chees Co has just re-opened with some really exciting cheese. Nick & Leonie have just opened a fantastic cheesery with wood burning oven which they'll be baking their own sourdoughs.<BR/>We go camping on Bruny at Cloudy Bay, there a national park camping ground thats onlt accessable after a couple of k's along the pounding beach, its remarkable. You have to bring your own water & firewood if you want a fire!<BR/>I heart Bruny.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7700505313257578551.post-27866807411226121212007-11-30T16:06:00.000+11:002007-11-30T16:06:00.000+11:00Tigerfish - I would say that washed rinds are even...Tigerfish - I would say that washed rinds are even more pungent than the blue cheeses. Roquefort and Gorgonzola to my mind are smelly but have a sweetness that washed rinds lack.<BR/><BR/>Grocer - the Hunter Valley one was lovely, but as you say, more delicate, so on my own personal Richter Scale it didn't completely rock my world.<BR/><BR/>Gobbler - thanks it was remiss of me not to be more specific in my description of production. Tallegio I love too, especially melted with some Swiss Brown Mushrooms and thyme on chunky toast.<BR/><BR/>We're headed to see the Hoodoo Gurus at Rutherglen next year, so while we're there and the boys are playing golf I'm going to immerse myself in all Millawa has to offer.<BR/><BR/>Bruny I gather is your local? I've just bought some Bruny oysters to shuck tonight...mmmm. Off to Toofeys tomorrow night for more things fishy.stickyfingershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14861830835308131738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7700505313257578551.post-46856016596598892482007-11-30T15:31:00.000+11:002007-11-30T15:31:00.000+11:00Sticky, most washed rind cheeses are usually washe...Sticky, most washed rind cheeses are usually washed in brine or wine.<BR/>Some Aussie faves of mine are:<BR/>Mungarbareens(Once made by Habberfield dairy now owned by Parmalat<BR/>King River & Milawa Gold(Milawa cheese factory)<BR/>1792(Bruny Island Cheese Co)<BR/>But my all time favourite washed rind is a Pont L'Eveque & a TalleggioAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7700505313257578551.post-8100173096746771612007-11-30T05:02:00.000+11:002007-11-30T05:02:00.000+11:00i'm not great with anything stinky, it's one of th...i'm not great with anything stinky, it's one of the downsides to having a sensitive "nose" which is a real shame at times.<BR/><BR/>having said that, I think the hunter valley washed rind is lovely and more delicate on the nose than others, but would that affect its richness? did you try it at the banquet?grocerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13860154539429230909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7700505313257578551.post-74826972778802074292007-11-29T17:39:00.000+11:002007-11-29T17:39:00.000+11:00I am so pleased, those girls do an amazing job mak...I am so pleased, those girls do an amazing job making cheese.

As for goats cheese, I don't mind a mild one. As for the goats cheeses with the ash on them, uuuugggghhhhh, they really really stink and I can't handle that strong taste yet.thanh7580https://www.blogger.com/profile/12101572834580539226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7700505313257578551.post-67094903885741854772007-11-28T16:09:00.000+11:002007-11-28T16:09:00.000+11:00Sticky, my favourite at the moment is Holy Goat Ve...Sticky, my favourite at the moment is Holy Goat Veloute... even Alana (17) LOVED it, even though at first she thought it "smelt"... we cannot get enough, I am so pleased her palete is developing... it took me 40 years and a trip to Dordogne to realise what a dream good cheese is!!!
