I wish I was winning round cheeses! TFW too hetero a man to seduce a farmer and get treated like this:
He tells her, she needs to gain weight.
She does look somewhat fascinated in the picture. Confirmed.
Everyone, do yourself a favour and get a Cheese slicer. This is standard equipment in any Swedish kitchen, and they are really convenient. You can pick up a basic one from IKEA for very little money, and I don’t think you’re ever going to use a knife again for cutting cheese after that.
Swiss here, they only work on hard cheese, not on gum cheese. And they are more to make cheese sandwich-sized, not to cut it.
Btw, you can also use your peeler for that.
Why I knew it was Cathedral city cheese of all 😅
The importance of proper punctuation rears its head.
mistakes like this tend to appear in hard to handle situations
Need a knife with full tang!
A long time ago my grandfather had a cheeseboard that had a small cut into it. And a metal bar that went around the outside with a wire that you would pull down to cut through the cheese. It was easier to use than knives and was fairly easy to clean. Similar to this:
Loved the thing
Why does the scale stop on the side after the string? I would have thought you measured what you were slicing by having the scale start after the string and pushing the cheese along the scale over the indent to the length you want and then slicing. Putting it only on the left seems weirdly unhelpful. It’d just tell you what length something was before you sliced it.
Whomever made that one didn’t think that through I guess. That’s how they used to make portable table saws when I was younger as well. The one he had didn’t have those marks it was more like this.
Same premise at the end of the day. Blocks of Muenster, pepper jack, or w.e you like work well with it. We used to take it in a cooler when going fishing. Throw soda for the kids/beer for my grandfather, the cutter, cheese, a couple rolls of crackers and a Pepperoni or salami roll if we were feeling fancy. Top of the cooler works as a makeshift table.
