I was sooo excited for this, I used a french Camembert cheese that i picked up at the store. The pairings all turned out really good. There was Basil leaves, Orange Bell Pepper, Peach slices, Lingon Berry Sauce and Toasted Ciabatta bread with Olive oil and Balsamic Vinegar. Such an amazing plate, the only issue... NO WINE!!!!!! However, the following is my tasting notes, which are obviously each being tasted with the cheese and bread:
The Orange Bell Pepper- Really nice crunchy taste. Very food and filling. When the bell pepper has some cheese and Lingon Berry sauce on it the taste has a good substance meaning that it still has that filling feeling we all want but with a nice sweet taste to it. The Lingon Berry sauce is alot like cranberry sauce but in my opinion a little nicer to the tongue. It is sweeter. The Lingon Berry sauce with the cheese and bread is very good, tangy, similar to a cranberry sauce, sweet and molds in your mouth. The two creamy items break down the crunchy bread so that it fills the taste. The Sauce, cheese and bread with a basil leaf on it is really good. The basil leaf holds it's own all by itself. Just one leaf is all you need. So when mixed with the sauce it is very good, has a bit of a sweet earthy taste to it. Now with just the basil leaf, cheese and bread it is amazing! it is in my opinion a perfect pairing! The basil leaf mixed with the peach and cheese on the bread is ok, nothing special really happened. The peach and the cheese on the bread was sweet, a bit tangy, but very soft and almost pillowy in your mouth. The last combination that I did was the Pepper and the basil leaf, this was also another amazing pairing, so incredible.
However I think the best pairing out of these would have to be the basil leaf with the cheese on a piece of bread.
