As her annual speech approaches on Christmas Day, why not follow suit and discover the delights of Comté for yourself?\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\nComté is handcrafted by artisans, using a method which has not changed for centuries. Thanks to its versatility, Comté pairs superbly with both red and white wine along with Champagne, making it a tasty choice for Christmas party nibbles. To make Comté even more festive why not pair it with orange zest, which perfectly complements its creamy undertones? What’s more, the intense flavours of Comté make it the perfect addition to your Christmas cheeseboard. Thanks to their aromas of butter and caramel, young Comté is especially complimented by chutneys, especially the sweet, rich flavours of fig chutney.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\nComté’s full-spectrum of delicious flavours makes it ideal for numerous festive recipes, such as scallops with a Comté and hazelnut crust. The breadcrumb, hazelnut and Comté mix adds a deliciously festive twist to lightly fried scallops, making it the perfect Christmas Day aperitif. Or, when the festivities are over, why not add it to your Boxing Day platter, or combine it with leftover turkey in some delicious puff-pastry rolls? Warm, melted Comté and spice-infused Turkey breast is encased in a golden-brown pastry, which will keep your family full even after the decorations have been taken down.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\nComté is available from all major supermarkets, as well as specialist farm shops and delis.

Montbéliarde and French Simmental are the only cows allowed for the production of Comté milk. They must only be fed with natural feed and have at least 2.5 acres of grazing pasture.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\nComté’s methods of production are still based on the original co-operative approach and artisan traditions. Each day it is lovingly crafted in around 160 small village fruitières. Often situated in the heart of the village, each fruitière continues to receive milk from dedicated dairy farms situated within an 8 mile radius to guarantee its absolute freshness. This radius also ensures all 160 remain active and the Massif du Jura region maintains its fruitière diversity.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\nLovingly crafted every day, the freshly made cheese wheels are pre-ripened for a few weeks before moving to one of the 16 maturing cellars. Here the affineurs look after them for 4 to 18 months or more; regularly turning, salting and rubbing each one with brine solution. Over time a crust appears and every Comté wheel develops its unique smooth texture, rich colour and delicious range of flavours."},"link":[{"rel":"replies","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"https:\/\/www.theenglishkitchen.co\/feeds\/2746506073330552902\/comments\/default","title":"Post Comments"},{"rel":"replies","type":"text/html","href":"https:\/\/www.theenglishkitchen.co\/2014\/10\/baked-cheese-dip-and-gourmet-mac-and.html#comment-form","title":"5 Comments"},{"rel":"edit","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"https:\/\/www.blogger.com\/feeds\/7100882347408067241\/posts\/default\/2746506073330552902"},{"rel":"self","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"https:\/\/www.blogger.com\/feeds\/7100882347408067241\/posts\/default\/2746506073330552902"},{"rel":"alternate","type":"text/html","href":"https:\/\/www.theenglishkitchen.co\/2014\/10\/baked-cheese-dip-and-gourmet-mac-and.html","title":"Baked Cheese Dip and a Gourmet Mac and Cheese"}],"author":[{"name":{"$t":"Marie Rayner"},"uri":{"$t":"http:\/\/www.blogger.com\/profile\/00407913432222377267"},"email":{"$t":"noreply@blogger.com"},"gd$image":{"rel":"http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail","width":"32","height":"32","src":"\/\/blogger.googleusercontent.com\/img\/b\/R29vZ2xl\/AVvXsEhzMjK9JXF9J07LjT7q87CzFr7lfbY_b46M6Ckbl4uoouXZe8fbXl8jvYZLZFb_ifxpDJ6VrklMQnta28K-9eJR25vccys5WempX6-vlNwIc3v8H5_Mg12SYfbzVf0Ucg\/s220\/profile+pic.jpg"}}],"media$thumbnail":{"xmlns$media":"http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/","url":"http:\/\/4.bp.blogspot.com\/-_ceLPIm45IQ\/VD_zaeW-TXI\/AAAAAAAAHqM\/F2Q07ihhTDM\/s72-c\/best%2Bqueen.jpg","height":"72","width":"72"},"thr$total":{"$t":"5"}}]}});
