    I’ve been on a goat cheese kick recently. It’s really good but also very expensive

      Costco sells big portions of chevre for a lot less money than grocery stores. It freezes well too so don’t have to rush to eat it.

        Interesting suggestion. I’ll check that out next time I’m there, thanks!

          Sometimes yes sometimes no. It can really screw with the texture of some cheeses. Other cheeses last months without being frozen.

          Goat cheese is pretty loose and grainy, so freezing doesn’t affect it much.

            If everythings already melted then I guess it wouldn’t matter

      Blue cheese has mold in it.

      I really like blue cheese as well. I didn’t like it at first, but over time I have liked it more and more.

        Same. I also didn’t like onions at first, and now I’ll eat slices of raw red onion during meal prep.

      Well, then I’m going to say manchego, even without membrillo.

      I dont typically care for beer but I recognize it has culinary value, potentially :/

            I usually can’t stand beer, and yet moving to Wisconsin introduced me to beer Cheddar cauliflower soup.

            Seek it out this winter, it’s delicious and warms better than a good whiskey.

              Besides the cauli, I might be persuaded into entertaining trying something like that, should the opportunity arise

              Edit: I feel it might lend well to something red and heavy like chilli or a chowder/stew of some sort. Beef + vegetables + beer (easy now) + noodle of some sort (easy now again) might not be too bad

                I thought the same, but you can replace the cauliflower with broccoli if cauli isn’t your thing. The heavy gets too heavy. Give the beer cheese soup a shot on its own first (if you want, leave out the veggies and sop it with sourdough–super delicious).

                It’s one of those things that many people had to approach me with first, each with the rather suspicious “just trust me…”

                But, my friend, give it a shot I did, and all I can say is, uhh, just trust me.

                One thing I’ve noticed, after making a few batches, is that you should use a medium to sharp cheddar. The mild stuff gets lost in the flavor mix.

                And the sourdough sop, can’t reccomend that enough.

                  How practical would it be to have like a grilled cheese sourdough bowl of tomatoe soup?

      I feel like people would be happier if they always had a “kick” or a “thing” going on continuously that they were perpetually trying or experimenting with.

      Like on Sunny, they always have like a thing or “type-deal” going on that makes things fresh

          I wonder how much of it is the AD(H)D. I feel like my same terrible habit of dropping new endeavors might extend well to being open and really desiring exploring above shit like prestige and power etc. i love being a tourist in my own life and learning and asking questions and “having a wonderful time”

            You sound like me before I came to terms with my diagnosis. I even used to call myself a subculture tourist lol.

            Of course this way of thinking doesn’t have to be seen as a detriment. I love how curious I am and how knowing about a ton of topics really helps me draw connections.

            Just my two cents! Naturally, you know yourself the best :)
