Cheddar, parmesan, camembert... Actually scratch camembert, and parmesan and cheddar could be combined, similar flavor with aged cheddar... Some sort of fresh cheese is always good too, but also blue cheese or similar, and something melty but also feta types...


Maybe aged cheddar/parmesan, feta/blue, queso fresco/mozzarella, camembert/brie...

I know some of those are pretty different, but similar-ish profiles in my mind sort of. Pretty sure I'm missing some major cheeses though fuck.

This is difficult question.

Pecorino
Cheddar

I don't make stuff that calls for much else. I'll eat any cheese though.

>parmesan and aged cheddar
>similar
you're fucking retarded

Good a good hard aged cheddar and compare side by side with good parmesan, they are somewhat similar and fit a similar niche.

velveeta, swiss, cheddar, parmazan

I knew this picture would help me out in the future

>Complaining about cheddar/Parmesan but not feta/blue

The only tard here is you.

I honestly didn't even read that far.

Cheddar
Gouda

Pepperjack

Cheddar, feta, goat, and brie

Cheddar, American, pepper jack, Swiss

In that order

Kraft Single

Easy Cheese
Velveta
Great Value™ American Singles

Cheddar (Not American)
Mozarella
Brie
A strong blue cheese (Like a Stilton or something)

>And here we find the American

Cheddar, Mozz, Romano, Brie.

Any "cheesy" recipe is pretty much covered with the first two, any Italian dish with the middle two, and the last is because I had an extra and it goes well as a cheese/crackers combo.

Protip: hardness varies with age, rendering your chart pointless

Fresh baguette, under the grill with a drizzle of oil and garlic

bacon in the pan, nice and hot

slice of brie

some rocket salad

Blue is not a cheese you dumb fat clappy fucks

yeah it is
I mean, its not super specific, but its still a type of cheese

cheddar
mature cheddar
extra mature cheddar
kraft

Mozzarella
Cheddar
Parmesan
Cream Cheese

Insanely vanilla choices, but they work

A hard grating cheese (Parmagiano or Pecorino)
A semi-hard cheese for enjoying with bread and charcuterie (I'd probably go for something like a young Cheddar or Gouda)
A soft cheese, which is what I use for melting and sandwiches (Brie or muh dirty argie slightly-more-versatile-imho Cremoso)
A blue cheese (Roquefort)

>Cremoso

Red Leicester
Gouda
Cheddar
Parmesan

Im assuming all the cheeses included here are relatively fresh?
Otherwise whats the point of including hardness?

A hard cheese: Cheddar (the real stuff, from Somerset)
A soft cheese: Brie
A blue cheese: Roquefort

And that leaves me with one; I want to pick something like Parmiganiao reggiano but that's four cow's milk cheeses, so I'm torn. Maybe swap the Rouqefort for a blue sheeps milk (something like Lanark Blue) and then have Parmiganiao for the forth?

Any Mature cheddar

Brie of some sort.

Gouda

Cheddar is the absolute staple, as a britbong at least. Mozzarella goes on anything remotely Americanized, like Pizza and Nachos. Parmesan goes on real Italian style food. Feta goes with all sorts of weird healthy shit like salads and middle-eastern lamb dishes.

If I'm making a recipe that involves cheese, you can bet with 90% certainty that it's going to be one of these four. They show up in every single western cookbook, it's hard not to consider them the "main four".

All cheeses are essential and tasty, don't just limit yourself to four.

The local supermarket remodeled and added a cheese kiosk... dozens and dozens of cheeses I've never even heard of. Incredible stuff. Then there's the goat cheese guy @ the farmer's market. Some amazing combinations of cow's and sheep's milk.

For so long in the US there was cheddar, jack and American cheese. And that was it.

No. I'm afraid you are the regard.
There is "cheddar" beyond the crap you along side Kraft and Sargento

you're so mad you've descended into typing nonsense phrases

Looks like /b/ is sending their regards to us once again

No. I think you're American with a trace of Italian blood.

Too bad I'm poor so I can't really justify spending $10 on a piece of cheese that'll last 3 days. Cheddar's fucking awful though.

American - for making cheese sauce
Cheddar - for eating on crackers
Provolone - for sandwiches
parmesan - for making pasta sauce
Mozzarella - for pizza
