Video : Cheese of the month
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QV3iw_YgGMg Ann-Marie Dyas from The Fine Cheese Co. is The Simple Things' resident cheese expert. Each issue, she'll be sharing with us her favourite cheese of the month.
The Simple Things team are huge cheese fans (could you tell by our choice of launch party venue?!) but we're the first to admit we're not exactly experts.
In contrast, what Ann-Marie Dyas doesn't know about cheese isn't worth knowing! Her enthusiasm for her produce at The Fine Cheese Co. is so infectious we knew we had to get her involved in The Simple Things.
In this, the first of her cheese of the month videos, Ann-Marie shares with us her favourite goats' cheese, plus a delicious looking (and super-easy to make!) supper idea.
