Morbier: Cheese with a Dash of Ash
(The Gourmet Cheese of the Month Club)
Traditionally, a half wheel of Morbier would be propped up by the fire. As it started to melt, the cheese would be scraped on to crusty bread or hot potatoes
Our favorite piece of Morbier was purchased at a discount at a Paris grocery. It was near to being over-ripe, expired and it was sooo good.
