@16 Manju - Yes, I can’t quite believe that such things arrive in the mail! I’m in California.

So jealous! Artisanal cheeses by mail?! You are 2 lucky ladies! BTW, are you writing from the US or Europe/UK?

Hi Ivy! It seems that fewer and fewer people anywhere are making their own cheese.

Lucky you Lulu, handmade cheese is not easy to get even in Athens.

There is a butcher just down the road from our house on Skopelos and he does absolutely terrific sausages - we always cook them by pouring a little water in the pan and cooking them on the hob with a lid on the pan - when all the water has gone the sausages brown and are invariably delicious. But I’d like to know another way of cooking them, so yes, Sausages will do just fine!

Cheers Lulu,

Hey I love love love eating bread and cheese too. But both need to be of good quality. Do you know what is nice to do with kefalograviera? Saute some runner beans in butter and grate the cheese on top. A friend of mine from Nafplion used to make it with teh first beans of the season and it was lovely!

Oh dear, I keep feeling guilty about that, DB! How about sausages, would they do?
