Recipe: Smoky Grilled Cheese

Ford Farm’s classic Mild Coloured Cheddar is a firm-bodied cheese with a subtle, creamy flavour and beautiful dark yellow colour. The yellow colour is derived from naturally occurring annatto, and gives it that characteristic cheddar appearance.

With limited ageing of just two to three months, its mild flavour makes it very versatile for using in cooking applications, or for eating directly.

About Ford Farm Cheesemakers:

Ford Farm is located in the rolling Dorset Downs of Southwest England. It is one of the few remaining traditional farmhouse cheddar makers, using methods and recipes that date back many hundred years. They use the highest quality milk, sourced from local, free-range dairy herds. The cheddars are aged and graded regularly by in-house graders to check their progress, and released when they have achieved optimum flavour.

Ford Farm’s Dorset Red Smoked Cheddar is created by following the traditional Cheddar-making process, except that the heat of the milk is lowered and less stirring is done, resulting in a milder flavour and creamier texture. After pressing into a block and maturing for three months, it is cold-smoked over oak chips overnight, giving it a distinct mellow smoky flavour.

A fresh, vibrant red wine will complement the mellow, lightly smoked flavours of this delicious Dorset Red.

After over a year of careful ageing, this cheddar develops naturally occurring calcium crystals, giving it a slightly granular texture and crunch.

Oakwood is part of Ford Farm’s Smoked Cheddar collection. This is a pure Cheddar carrying the much coveted PDO (Product of Designated Origin) status and made using milk from cows that are free to roam the farmhouse.

After the cheese is made, it is sent to a local traditional smokery where it is slowly smoked over natural oak chippings until it takes on a subtle oak-smoked flavour and develops a deep, burnished gold rind.

Oakwood looks the part on the cheeseboard and its full flavour is best brought out with a crisp Pinot Grigio or a sharp, tangy cider.
