Propaganda Machine posted:As a New Englander living on the west coast, the general obsession with Tillamook blows my mind. Then again, Cabot spoiled me. It's available at Costco and Trader Joe's sometimes (I think Whole Foods might carry it too); you should check it out if you come across it. I miss all the varieties they have back home, but the standard issue cheddar is still excellent. Their sharper/older varieties also rule. Cabot black wax cheddar is one of the best nationally distributed cheddars you can get here and they even make a cloth-bound cheddar. hail Cabot

I don't know how common Armstrong is, but that's my go-to supermarket cheese. The old cheddar is properly sharp and a little crumbly, sometimes you'll even get some crystals. Way nicer than you expect to see on sale in the walmart flyer.

I just checked and they only have Cabot and Tillamook as block cheese for grocery delivery, which is all I'm doing right now because gently caress going to the store during the pandemic. I got a new cheese grater though, so I'll definitely add some to my next order

muenster isn't fancy, but it is a tasty cheese that goes great on sammiches. but like most cheeses itt you have to beware cheap knock-off versions, which are just mushy and bland. at the end of the day you need spend serious cheese to get serious cheese.

I would like some kind of extra strong Swiss cheese. Not the more acrid taste that can come with older cheeses, just a double down on the funk of swiss-ness

Tip posted:I put this on some french toast and it was amazing. Never had the guac salsa but I did have their salsa Verde, which I'm not usually crazy about-i like hot and red salsa, and it was very good. Made some lovely grilled chicken enchiladas topped with Cotija, cilantro, pickled onion. Edit: Herdez is quality

pecorino romano is made using the same recipe and technique as it was in roman days, resulting in a pleasantly sharp and salty flavor, and can be easily whipped into a nice cacio e pepe.

If you like a good parm, find some bellavitano.

Living in Wisconsin I already get confused when people talk poo poo about american cheeses, until I realize they are talking about process cheese. I'm lucky that every grocery store worth their own has at least a huge asile devoted to lots of good cheeses for fairly cheap prices.

Crusty Nutsack posted:get yourself some Pleasant Ridge Reserve or Roth Grand Cru Wisconsin cheese represent. These two own and Sartori makes a kickass parmesan that only Europhile snobs will balk at. Hell, their whole Bellavitano line is drat tasty. Hook's aged cheddar and Carr Valley cardona are also stupid good. Oh yeah, we have cheese curds too. Pure, squeaky heaven. And all you poor bastards who think Cabot and Tillamook are any good need to come here and eat some real cheese. You don't need to try hard, just drive through the state and stop at any cheese store - there's one on every exit on the interstate or just off of every major highway (if you're going between a major city and Green Bay you can't miss 'em as you head up to your Packers tailgate). Any one of them will have a 5 year cheddar from the cheese factory up the road that will make whatever passes as cheese in Vermont seem like yellow-dyed modeling clay.

You can make a super cheesy cheese sauce without the flavor deadening, and potentially grainy qualities of flour (roux) using sodium citrate. I would highly suggest it for anyone looking to step up their nachos game.

My fav semi/hard cheeses: - Gruyere is very good. Had all age levels during a manufacturing tour there, and they are all good. By extension, Comté is also good. - Danish/Northern German style cheeses: It's difficult to find good Tilsit but if you do it's good. Maybe Harvarti or Esrom is also good. - I like Grana Padano for some Pasta dishes over Parmigiano, and Pecorino is also better for some others. However, for straight up I think Parmigiano is best. I don't particularly like Manchego. -> However, even having eaten most cheeses from US, Europe and Asia, I have to say that the absolute best cheese is still old Gouda. There is nothing quite like it. Dense and crumbly, but at the same time chewy with crystallized bits and the perfect balance of taste. My fav white cheeses: - For white cheeses I usually go with Turkish/Bulgarian over Greek, as they are less crumbly and more moist which I like in white cheeses. I also think Feta often overdoes the sheep milk component. You can actually choose among like ten levels of fat content, too, which makes it very versatile. - From Turkey, there's Örgü Peynir and Tel Peynir which are very good. Good luck getting them anywhere, though.

Oaxaca and Cotija are the best cheese for Tacos. They are from the taco country. Manchego is from the Tapas country. If you like bland cheese on your tacos listen to these two. Maybe you would like string cheese on your taco? If you have rippling muscles and women swoon just at your cheese smell then eat Manchego on your tacos you fools.
