Planning a cheeseboard for the holidays?
1. Opinel Cheese Knife & Fork Set, £37.95, whitbyandco.co.uk
Every cheeseboard needs a good knife and fork. This one features a knife with a beech wood handle, made from sustainably sourced European-harvested wood.
2. Peter's Yard Sourdough Crispbread Original, £2.95, petersyard.com
Made using all-natural ingredients, including slow-fermented sourdough, these are the perfect vessels for your cheese.
3. Cypressa Olives with Red Pepper & Chipotle, find stockists at cypressa.co.uk
We love pairing cheese with a selection of savoury olives. These ones are best served with a slab of goat’s cheese atop a crunchy cracker.
4. Shepherds Purse Northern Blue, £3.40, shepherdspurse.co.uk
This powerful blue is robust and creamy. We love it with a drizzle of honey and walnuts.
5. Red Fox Belton Farm, £2.50, in-store at Waitrose
Deliciously handcrafted, this russet-coloured cheese has an unexpected crunch and tastes fantastic on plain crackers with a good dollop of chutney.
6. Delamere Dairy Farmhouse Mild Goat’s Cheese, £2.70, ocado.com
This mild and creamy cheese is an attractive cheeseboard addition. It’s best served with olives or honey, on top of peppered crackers.
7. Hilltop Honey Cut Comb in Acacia Honey, £6, sainsburys.com
Balancing out the saltiness of cheese is this sweet honey. Simply drizzle over your cheese and crackers, and tuck in. Divine!
