How Much Cheese To Buy
We recommend a portion size of 70-120g per person depending on when you are eating the cheese. 70g is ample if you are serving the cheese immediately after a large meal or as part of a buffet. If the cheese is the main part of the meal you will need to allow at least 100g per person and you may prefer to go to 120g if you think your guests will be particularly hungry (or just very fond of cheese!).
However, if you are only a small party, you may find that the pieces look a little small. In this case, choose fewer pieces, or even just one cheese, so that you can present your guests with something that looks more substantial. If you want to provide a wider choice of cheeses, just go for slightly larger pieces and enjoy the leftovers yourself the next day.

Product details
Simplicity itself, this ewes’ curd is made in Somerset by Tim Homewood and Angela Morris from the milk of a flock of ewes in nearby Dorset. The milk is slowly acidified and then set with the addition of rennet. The curds are drained and lightly salted before being packed into tubs; and that is all there is to it. Yet the gentle handling of the curd perfectly preserves the delicate, fresh flavour of the ewes’ milk with just a slight citrusy tang.
Ewes' curd is perfect for both sweet and savoury recipes. It is as wonderful used in a lemony baked cheese cake as it is in a smoked trout pate. A wonderful, versatile cheese.
Winner of Best Sheep's Milk Cheese at the Artisan Cheese Awards 2021.
