    Last night this was just one of the highlights of a delicious supper enjoyed with our foodie friends Justin and Jurga from Pea Porridge Restaurant. Mont d'Or AOC is a cheese from the Franche-Comté region made from cows milk produced from 15th August to 31st March. There are strict rules for the production of this AOC cheese. The raw milk can only be from the cows of the Montbéliard and Simmentaler breeds. To shape the Vacherin, it is rounded using a ring of Spruce bark. It is ripened on a Spruce wood board, taking at least three weeks, and is rotated several times before it is placed in its characteristic wooden box. We ate it directly from the box with a spoon. It is also delicious melted in the box in the oven.  Get some now for your Christmas cheeseboard.
