Baron Bigod Custard and Lavosh Crackers

I love using Baron Bigod. It’s a raw cow’s milk cheese similar to a Brie De Meux but made in England. It’s very nutty and has a real mushroomy, umami sort of flavour to it, but with a fairly short ageing time it is still fresh. We never do a cheese plate with chutney, grapes and biscuits at Aizle — it has always seemed boring to me — so instead we try to come up with something more contemporary, with the same amount of thought that goes in to the other dishes on the menu.
