Ever go into a cheese store and you're not sure what to get? What's in season now? What's best on that particular day? Well that's why you have the expert cheesemongers behind the counter or you can turn to your favorite cheese blog, Fromagical, for a few ideas.
If you are in the neighborhood of Murray's on Bleecker Street, I recommend getting:
1. Monte Enebro - The Spanish goat's milk cheese with an ashen and blue mold based rind, a fantastically luscious indulgent and cake-y cream line and a crisp bright milky interior paste. Right now Monte Enebro is at its best -- creamy, flavorful, and alive. The cream line is dialed up a notch right and the cheese just is clicking perfectly.
2. Casatica di Bufala - This pasteurized water buffalo milk based Italian cheese is soft ripened with a decadent bloomy rind. Unctuous in all the right sort of ways with a pillowy-like mouth feel. Rich and round, full of flavor, it is the sort of cheese that delights anyone and everyone.
So grab these two cheeses, a nice bottle of Sancerre, some crackers, and call it a day.
