Cheese help needed! - Harborwitch - 02-20-2011
Jean, Allison????
We bought a Mt. Townsend Creamery Cirrus - camembert
didn't realize that, and we're not crazy about camembert but I'm wondering if I could grill it on a cherry plank and do the mango topping??????Anyone?????
We're grilling oysters and I thought this would be perfect - but!

I'm not an expert but if I recall camembert is even softer than brie so might melt fast.
I had a baked Cam a few years ago that just had me drooling.

We got some other cheese from this co. when we were in Port Angeles with Roy and Jean. But not this one. The last cam. we had was at a pot luck on the Island - it smelled and tasted like ammonia (only worse). It was so bad the guy who brought it took it down and threw it in the river.

I hope you at least tasted it - that last experience was definitely bad cheese, not what the Cirrus usually is!
sorry I didn't see this last night - what did you end up doing? That is one of Mt. Townsend cheeses we love! What a shame.

It was another camembert that got thrown in the river. Did we try the Cirrus while we were there?
I think we'll go ahead and grill it tonight if you think it'll work. I just have mango - no raspberries at the market, but it's a cherry would plank.
We also go a small piece of the truffle cheese. I think the cheesemonger was a little miffed - we didn't buy a single Cowgirl cheese! Oh well - we can get it in the store here.

I would love that, Sharon - hope you guys will also.
