smegma is the patrician choice.

I can’t name a better cheese.
Having that with some Jamon Serrano and bread with a nice glass of Marques de Caceres is unbeatable.
Takes me back to my family in Spain

american style cheese (now melts)

>>9859034
I visited Spain for a few months. It'll stay with me forever. That ham and that cheese...

>>9859027
I've had some kinda crap Manchego now that it's gained popularity stateside. It's definitely the best "do everything" cheese: it's good in sandwiches, in sauces, and on it's own.

I do really like a nice ripe blue cheese. A good Stilton or Roquefort gives Manchego a run for the money. Queso Iberico is good, too, and usually cheaper.

>>9859027
Mahonés cheese, from the Balearic islands. Try to find a good one if you are going to try it

Manchego Is wonderful.
But so is Gruyère or a good Parmesan. Hard cheeses in general are great.

>>9859027
I love authentic spanish cuisine.

This cheese reminds me that i have no gf. :( fuck!

But it is delicious

>>9859283
oh no! sorry anon I didn't mean to remind you :'(

I'm a sucker for a nice brie or blue.

>>9859027
I do love manchego, but I'm gonna have to go for stilton.

>>9859027
kraft singles

>>9859110

better delete this before the lawyers get involved. processed pasteurized cheese food is the legally correct term.

>>9859345

>>9859347

seriously. cheese lawyers will sue for edamages.

Camembert

>>9859380
I eated da cheddar xD

>>9859347
>american flavored

>>9859456
American is a type of "Cheese"

>>9859119
>That ham and that cheese...

France does both better.

>>9859540
Cheese maybe, but Spanish ham is probably the best in the world.

>>9859027
>Name a better cheese. I'll wait.

Once they're this good it's really more a question of what you need it for and where your tastes lie.

I am a sucker for grana padano and parmigiano reggiano though.

Or, in more experimental cheeses, the absolutely pleb tier Havarti has recently been joined by an aged havarti which is hard to describe but maybe by analogy to Prästost. I don't buy it often but it's interesting.

>>9859027
Dick cheese

>>9859027
Havarti

>>9859540
French boiled blonde ham is atrocious.

>>9859380
>edamages
:DDDDD

>>9859034
Jesus christ i hate you LARPing assholes.

>>9860351
The "LA" in LARP stands for Live Action.
It is, by definition, impossible to LARP on the internet.

I'll give you one guess who looks like an idiot in this conversation, and you'll probably get it wrong.

>>9860351
>LARPing
You clearly do not know what that means.
Lurk Moar, newfag.

Boulette d'avesnes, not for the wimp.

>>9859347
>Nutrition information

It has nutritional value?!

>>9860371
Is that breadcrumbs around the outside?

>>9859027
Pag goat cheese

>>9860385
Even bottled water has Nutritional info, you have to label everything even if it has no significant nutritional value.

>>9860392
Nah, it's just a washed rind cheese.

I'm partial to Stilton or an old gouda

>>9859540
French cheese is better, but the only thing to even come close to rivaling Spanish ham is Southern US pork BBQ. But even then, it’s not really a contest. The Spaniards have us beat.

gorgonzola every time

>>9859027
Reggiano obviously

>>9859027
All cheese tastes the same.

Checkmate, Euros.

>>9862347
What makes parm reg the "King of Cheeses?"

>>9862484
I don't know, as far as I've been concerned it's just a nickname that many chefs and cheese experts around the globe call it. Probably because of its versatile flavour, exquisite smell and the dedication that goes into making it and of course the process of making the cheese in itself. That's just my 2 cents though

>>9859110
>>9862473
I unironically like American cheese in small amounts. It may not be sophisticated, it may not be fancy, but it's a damn good snack.

>>9859027
RACLETTE

>>9859027
Garrotxa cheese is GOAT (no pun intended)

>>9862808
I'm a big cheese posh, but even I like American cheese every now and then. I think a lot of people hate it for just being processed or some shit

>>9859347
This shit always bothers me, never buy anything if the label doesn't say exactly what it is. Pic related, everyone I know calls it butter but there's not a single spot on the plastic tub that calls it that, it's just """"spread"""".

>>9862910
>Margarine must contain at least 80% fat. Any product containing less than 80% – like Country Crock® – is called a spread.

it's just more water content

>>9862920
I STILL DON'T TRUST THAT SHIT

Raclette

>>9859347
That shit's not even american cheese. It's imitation american cheese.

It's fake fake cheese the makes 5 week old surstromming inside a dead body seem more appetizing.

>>9859326
This tbqh lads

>>9861461
Jesus that is looks like it's fucking melting, I've seen plenty of gorg and it isn't like that at room temp

Manchego Manicotti is my stage name

>>9862883
>>9862808
>>9859110
>>9862992
There is a difference between american cheese and american "cheese" flavored slices and Kraft american "cheese"

>>9863219
You're right I totally forgot. I'm a leaf so when I hear "American" cheese I automatically think of Kraft singles. I enjoy both regardless

>>9863248
Finally someone who understands

>>9859027
smegma

Fromunder cheese is the bestest

>>9859027
Scarmosa, its essentially a smoked mozzarella but it's a damn tasty versatile cheese

>>9862910
That label does say exactly what it is in that it says what it isn't, Cheese.

>>9859491
But it's also a nationality and the first thing that comes to mind when you hear *American* not followed by a noun.

>>9859027
I love Manchego but Red Leicester is better

>>9859027

>>9859027
goat cheese generally tastes better, I don't need to get specific

>>9859027
>ctrl+f
>no pérail
shame

Burrata - It's mild, so it makes it easy to pair. It's texture is amazing too.

>>9859027
Cheese isn't a competition it's an orgy of delicious, delicate, pungent, creamy, hard, and salty flavors

>>9864198
Sheep > all, although three-animal cheeses with goat+sheep+cow can also be incredible.

>>9864142
>The Eternal Anglo and his "cuisine"...

>>9864842
I understand that for an American cheese that doesn't come in spray form probably frightens you.

>>9859027
Payoyo objectively, it's the best cheese from Spain.

>>9862808
I think it's sole culinary use is in grilled cheese. No real cheese I know of can replicate the consistency and flavor and they go hard when the sandwich cools.

>>9865183
Get actual american cheese and not that Kraft "cheese" product or american sandwich slices

>>9859398
worst cheese

I like camembert

>>9867257
fuck you

the nacho cheese at the gas stations desu

>>9867366
rude desu senpai

>>9867539
"Cheese"

>>9862465

>>9860357
>>9860365
Newfags calling people out for newfagging and getting shit wrong in the process.

What is a cheese that is meltier and more pungent than fontina or gruyere? They're a little too mild and nutty for what I'm trying to make, I do like them, but I am trying to find something a little less close to Swiss and closer to cheddar or American, but more complex and flavorful since those are obviously shit tier cheeses.

>>9865219
I don't notice too much of a difference, the only reason people get Kraft is because of the color. It probably has more whey and oil content than the "real" stuff but otherwise they seem to taste the same.

>>9869010
havarti is if you wanna party

Out of my way, tastelets

>>9859027
smegma.

>>9859027
There are so many delicious ones to choose from, but I'd have to go with cambozola

>>9864725
