Cheese is a delicious treat that you can serve all on its own or with your favourite bottle of wine. If you want to add something to your cheese platter, you should consider fresh fruit. The key is to make sure that you choose the right combinations. Here are some of the best fruit and cheese<\/a> pairings.<\/p>\n

Brie with apple<\/h2>\n

There are few things better than a crunchy, juicy apple to go with that scrumptious piece of brie. If you have never tried this combination before, you should start by cutting your apple into thin slices and top it with somewhat thin slices of brie. Make sure that the brie is thicker than the apple.<\/p>\n

Smoked gouda and figs<\/h2>\n

Figs are the kind of fruit that you either love or hate. If you are a fan of this juicy fruit, you should try pairing it with some smoked gouda. This is the perfect fruit and cheese pair because you can rest assured that the fruity flavour will not overpower or be overpowered by the smoked flavour of the cheese.<\/p>\n

Mozzarella and cranberries<\/h2>\n

This is an interesting fruit and cheese pairing for many. This is because dried cranberries are often sweetened. In many cases, they are actually too sweet. If you don’t mind the sweetness, this is great. Of course, if you prefer something less sweet, you can shop around at your local supermarket for unsweetened cranberries. They will pair wonderfully with various types of cheese but if this is your first time pairing them with cheese, you can’t go wrong with mozzarella.<\/p>\n

Apples, almonds and pears with Camembert<\/h2>\n

Camembert is known and loved for its rich and creamy flavour. The ideal fruit and cheese pairing in this case involves serving your Camembert at room temperature and alongside sliced apples, pears and almonds.<\/p>\n

Apples, olives, pears and grapes with red wax gouda<\/h2>\n

When choosing the right fruit and cheese pairing for hard cheese, you will love that there are so many different options. You can try pairing this type of gouda with apples, pairs or grapes. If you want something on the savoury side, you could try enjoying your cheese with some olives.<\/p>\n

Pineapple and parmesan<\/h2>\n

This cheese is unlike any other mainly because of its texture. The right fruit and cheese pairing in this case calls for something particularly sweet. You don’t need a lot of it to achieve an amazing result. Simply slice your pineapples and top with grated parmesan.<\/p>\n

Pears and blue cheese<\/h2>\n

Blue cheese has a strong and sharp flavour. Which is why you need fruit that can hold its own and pears will do just that.<\/p>\n

These are some of the best fruit and cheese pairing options that every cheese lover should try. While you’re at it, you should consider a bottle or two of wine and possibly some crackers or a variety of breads too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
