A cheeseboard is the perfect way to end a sumptuous dinner. Try to serve a few different varieties – a soft cheese such as brie, something tangy and firm such as cheddar, and a nice blue. Always provide plenty of fresh crackers and enjoy adding a few treats, such as a drizzle of honey, seasonal fruits, nuts, or try making this delicious log.
