Pick out a good mix. There are so many to choose from, and here I’ve listed a selection of some that are easily available.

Hard: Cheshire, Red Leicester, Farmhouse Cheddar, Double Gloucester, Lancashire or Wensleydale.

Blue: Stilton, an Irish Cashel Blue, Roquefort, Gorgonzola, Dolcelatte or a Lanark Blue from Scotland.

Semi-soft: The award-winning Irish Milleens, Chaumes or Reblochon.

Soft: French or Somerset Brie, Camembert, a soft British goat’s cheese or French chèvre. You may also be lucky enough to find the double and triple cream cheeses - Chaource and Explorateur.
