A cheese board at home: how to put it together
How many cheeses to choose, in what order to taste them and what to add to the board.
Three to five cheeses of different textures are enough for a board: soft, semi-hard, hard and, if you like, a blue.
Taste them from the mildest to the boldest so the flavours do not overwhelm each other. Take the cheese out of the fridge in advance — the aroma opens up at room temperature.
Nuts, honey, grapes, pears and crusty bread suit the board. They bring out the cheese and give a pause between flavours.
