Cheeses, cured ham, apple and tomatoes on a glass plate, with flatbread and bread behind

Recipe

Local food board

The local food board in our café is a selection of Norwegian cheeses, ham and flatbread. It is not a recipe you need to follow to the letter, but this is how we usually put it together. Choose cheeses of different ages and milks, and you get both mild and strong flavours on the same board.

Ingredients

Cheeses

  • 100 g Stavsfjell, ideally aged 12 or 24 months
  • 100 g Heimros
  • 100 g Sjaven
  • ½ jar of Knubbost in oil

To go with it

  • 100 g cured ham
  • 1 green apple
  • 8 cherry tomatoes
  • 1 bag of Ølbrau
  • A few slices of wholemeal bread
  • Fresh basil to garnish

Method

  1. Take the cheeses out of the fridge half an hour before serving so the flavour comes through.
  2. Cut the Stavsfjell and Heimros into thin slices or wedges, and the Sjaven into cubes.
  3. Arrange the cheeses on a large plate or board. Lift the Knubbost out of the jar and pile it up on its own.
  4. Roll up the cured ham, cut the apple into wedges and halve the tomatoes. Tuck everything in between the cheeses.
  5. Break the Ølbrau into large pieces and lay it alongside with the bread. Garnish with basil.

Tip

At our cheese and wine tasting we drank white wine with the Knubbost and rosé with Stavsfjell 3 and 6 months. Sjaven, Heimros and Stavsfjell 12 months got sparkling wine, and red wine suited Stavsfjell and Heimros aged for 24 months.
