1. Cote Hill Blue Cheese & Honey Seed Salad

Cote Hill Blue Cheese is an award-winning blue cheese, made by Michael and Mary Davenport in Lincolnshire. Cote Hill Blue matures slowly, over 3 months into a soft, aromatic cheese. It has a distinctive rind and a blue veined soft, creamy texture that coats the mouth and leaves behind a buttery sweetness and subtle kick.

A delicious cheese to top your salad and perfect with our honey-coated Sunflower seeds. Take a look at our honey seed recipe to pair with your blue cheese salads.

2. Sparkenhoe Red Leicester & Courgette Quiche

This comforting cheese & courgette quiche is perfect for a delicious family 'lockdown' mealtime. Ideally suited to a complex, hard cheese such as Sparkenhoe Red Leicester. However a full-flavoured Cheddar, Aged Gouda or Comte would be equally tasty. Take a look at the quiche recipe here.

3. Welsh Rarebit

The ultimate comfort food and a classic made with Cheddar cheese. Try our Welsh Rarebit recipe with a splash of Real Ale - make it with your earthy, creamy Westcombe Cheddar from the British Cheese Essentials box; made by Tom Calver of Westcombe Dairy in the Batcombe Vale of Somerset.
