Pyrenees Mixed Milk Tomme: This artisan cheese is named after his maker, M.C. Matocq, who produces it from sheep (brevis) and cows (vache) milk in the town of Asson in the Bearn. This is a semi hard, well structured, cheese with a slightly smooth textured pate. The wonderful contrast of the nutty rind is a feature of the Pyrenees & Basque cheeses. A good balance of acidity, salt and a 50 % fat content combined with the mixed milks create a sweetness on the palate.

For those of you who enjoyed the Fromage D'Affinois, there is some good news. It was so popular we've decided to keep it a little longer.

Ras el Hanout: What on earth do you do with that?

Contains: Paprika, Cumin, Ginger, Coriander Seed, Cassia, Turmeric, Fennel Seed, Allspice, Cardamon Green, Dill Seed, Galangal, Nutmeg, Orris Root, Bay Leaves, Caraway Seeds, Cayenne, Cloves, Mace, Black Pepper, Brown Cardamon, Whole Kashimiri Saffron Stigma

Description & Use: Ras el Hanout is a classic blend used in Moroccan cooking. The name means ‘top of the shop’ or the very best spice blend that a spice merchant (Souk) has to offer. When Herbie developed this Ras el Hanout, he researched many traditional recipes and then came up with his own interpretation. Herbie did leave out the Spanish Fly and the Hashish, however the Herbie's Spices Ras el Hanout is an incredibly beautifully balanced example of this versatile Moroccan spice. To make a spiced cous cous, just add ½ a teaspoon of Ras el Hanout per cup, the spices will make it wonderfully fragrant and the Saffron will give a golden colour. Sprinkle onto chicken and fish before cooking. Use in tagines of chicken and lamb.

We got this information from the Herbies website.
