@@gorillachilla Do you think I should still be stuck in past. Chill bro. Times changed. So are people. I agree racism exists. But that doesn’t mean I should be a racist like you, to hate some one based on race.
Lmao 😜. Cheese Insider, that's a good one! It's true though, they are definitely smelling up RU-vid with the amount of cheese videos they've produced this year, hehe.. 😂
Having worked in Italy for several years it was surprising how many had been to Britain and loved the food. Most of them thought it was going to be bland and tasteless, oh no it's not.
@@theslavicimmigrant4795 the best way i find to describe it to those that dont like in the uk is that, comfort food doesnt have to look good. most of our food looks pretty bad can't lie, but everything tastes good!
I think Britain and "bland food" became synonymous after WW2 until the eighties, I can remember some very bland and bad food, even in restaurants in the seventies. But that all started to change in the early eighties and now our food can compete with any countries.
@@theslavicimmigrant4795 when you consider the U.K. as rock jutting out into the frigid North Atlantic you eat what you have available to you… We can’t all grow olives and tomatoes after all 😂
Another mainland European here...i dislike most blue cheeses bar Stilton. Texture and taste are superior to roquefort or Gorgonzola in my opinion. Britain has superb cheeses. :)
@@LostInWotsoever you know Gorgonzola exist even in hard texture? Maybe you’ll like that more, it’s also stronger, different variations for different purposes
Neal's Yard Dairy makes a point of saving British cheeses "on the verge of extinction." Stilton, Cheddar, Cheshire, Red Leicester, Lancashire, Cornish Yarg, and more. Great place!
I used to live with a French student and she hated most British food - but she loved Stilton and it became her favourite cheese. She even bought an entire wheel of it.
7:08 When I was a vegetarian, the reason I never became vegan is that I refused to stop eating Stilton. When I went to Neal's Yard, and was talking to a cheesemonger I was rattling on about Stilton, and he started talking about the differences in taste based on the time of year and the dairy from which they came...basically, there are vintages of Stilton. He gave me different samples from different dairies and of different ages, and there really were noticeable differences. Best cheese on earth, hands down. Try it in a sandwich, of crusty bread with Branston pickle. Bliss.
If any of these fine folks that make this heavenly cheese read this I want to say "thank you" for enriching my life and making the world a better place to live in. You people and your work are treasures to be sure!
Italian here, my mouth is watering. I already imagining it melted on the pan with some milk and some slices of parmesan. In the mean time cooking some pancetta on the side and add everything togheter with the pasta, mammamiaaaaa
Thanks for showing us how this great-tasting cheese is made. It's my favourite English cheese ever. Mmh...beef and stilton Cornish pasty... broccoli and stilton soup...crumbled over a salad. Yum
Cant beat a good steak and stilton pie. I always go for stilton to make the pie in question as the water content in the likes of Gorgonzola and Roquefort is too high, The only blue cheese that comes close to stilton that is viable for pies and cheese sauce etc in my opinion is Danish blue.
ThisIsSolution it wasn’t the scoop that was the problem, it was the plop from up high. Not exactly a fine art, but she could have least tried to imitate what they were teaching her lol
Stilton is one of the world’s great foods. I am an avid consumer. I have even had Stichelton. However, I have never had the OLD traditional Stilton with the bugs. Modern hygienic production may have changed the taste irrevocably in ways we will never know. I have had Mimolette and, even though the rind had been scraped, found a live cheese mite in a piece of rind under a microscope.
Over two hundred years ago, Mrs. Musson, a Stilton maker, was quoted as saying: "Stiltons, with the exception that they make no noise, are more trouble than babies."
Good to see a production that has a considerable human, hands on factor involved as opposed to a fully automated production line. Interesting - I 💜 Stilton even if it's not made there.
My favorite cheese hands down! The first time I had a Ploughman's Lunch at a pub (Wheatsheaf?) near Grafham Water reservoir I fell in love with this cheese. It was a simple fare, bread, butter, Branston Pickle, a bit of lettuce, tomato, and cucumber, and of course the Stilton. Fond memories riding my mountain bike 'round Grafham and stopping off to eat a Ploughman's Lunch and quaff a pint of ale before cycling home to Buckden.

Its good to have centuries year old businesses and tradition that makes certainties worldwide, it is uniquely English and most companies to be as time concrete and evident as well as formidable as English businesses are.

@@Rod-bp8ow I'd just like to know if you liked your own comment or not, frankly. We both already knew that companies persisting through the ages wasn't uniquely British, but all I want to know is if you posted something and were so pleased with yourself that you decided to tell yourself how much you liked it.
@Anthony Lopez you enjoy movies tv shows and books in your day to day life so why do you insist on being a dick when it comes to people who enjoy video games I think it's more sad to cherish a work of art you cant actually interact with because it has less of an impact on you and is a waste of time (fictional stories and movies not educational books)
I'm a cheese making addict. I've always wanted to try my hand at making Stilton and I finally did so yesterday! So glad I watched this video though because if I hadn't, I would have pierced my cheese too early! Great video. I would be so thrilled if my cheese turns out as yummy! I'm curious though if it tastes similar to the French Bleu, Forme Albert'. I've made that cheese and it turned out to be one of my favorites. ❣️
I used to live near a braziers dairies. Also went on a tour of it if I remember correctly. Then went on to study in nottingham for four years. Great stuff. Ameet
In the 1935 movie “Mutiny on the Bounty,” Charles Laughton as Bligh offers Clark Gable as Christian a serving of cheese. As he does, to impress, he emphasizes “Stilton.”
When my son was about 11 years old he entered a Jaycee Relay Race. He’d never ran track before and didn’t know everybody wore shorts. He came in jeans, to everyone’s amusement. He ran the last leg for his team - and came away the fastest runner of the day, and made up considerable distance to win. This video made me think of that day. How I wish I had been able to see it, instead of only hear and read about it. I was a single mom and had to work. My son was an amazing athlete. ❤️
My wife's first job was at a dairy near Leicester that made Stilton. Part of her job was to lift and turn the cheeses, of which there were hundreds. She was a lovely little arm wrestler.
A lot of people have this misconception that English food sucks. Well here is food for thought. Stilton, cheddar, worcestershire sauce, crumpets with clotted cream and jam/honey, cumberland sausage..etc....and.......they invented mashed potatoes and gravey...nuff said.
I buy "Tuxford & Tebbutt" Stilton from ALDI. The problem is sometimes it's INCREDIBLY SALTY! I could eat a teaspoon of salt, and it would be less salty! ....... Although, my current piece of Stilton is DELICIOUS! I like the pieces from the MIDDLE of the round, with the rind only on the curved outer edge! I find it moister than pieces from the ends of the round! In my experience a good well-aged CHEDDAR should be dry and crumbly, but a good STILTON should be moist and soft. TIP: I keep my Stilton in a plastic bag, with a few drops of water, to keep it moist and delicious! Yummy! 👍😂 I understand that in the "old days," Stilton used to be brought to the table with MAGGOTS crawling all over it! Bon appetit! 😂😂😂 EDIT: Apparently, I made this comment one month ago, but (unlike the other comments) it hasn't received a single like (or dislike). This is a common theme in my comments. It's like I don't exist? Cheers everybody! 😂😂😂
I was bored to death, actually playing "words with friends 2", while this video rolled. BUT THEN... She started describing the flavors and texture of the cheese as she was eating it. Wow, I cannot wait to try blue stilton cheese. I will love it, if it's half as good as she's described.
@@richinderbyshire4779 🤣I can't believe someone asked after a year. The cheese was good, as described. But I would not eat it regularly for two reasons... I prefer harder cheeses for snacking, and it's not the kind of cheese I normally cook with. I watched the whole thing again just now. The producer Claudia Romeo really stands out, I was never too interested until she started describing the flavors. She's genuine.
@@guy-tn2ud Im from and live in this area in England so I was interested what people had to say. A few people said "Id love to try it" so I thought Id ask. Most of the comments are moronic tho. Im glad you werent grossed out by it. And yes.. the girl seems genuine...
@@richinderbyshire4779 Clearly, not everyone has an evolved enough palate, and some are just immature when it comes to trying new foods. I might try it again, especially after watching this video again! I love the story behind it all, and the pride the manufacturers take. If I ever have a chance to visit the UK, there are three food related things I would love to do... 1) Buy this stilton directly from the source and try it again. 2) Drink a few beers at a real old pub. 3) Enjoy a traditional Sunday roast, cooked by a traditional Englishman. Thanks for the exchange of ideas!
@@guy-tn2ud Ignorant comments. Not their fault. They simply have no clue. Im going to DM you if thats ok? Advice about the UK... where to go and where to DEF not go.
