CRÈME DE LA CRÈME

Spreadable cheese may sound like something that should only appear in children’s lunch boxes, but hold that thought and trust cheesemonger Anthony Femia. Finca Valdivieso is a family-run dairy that began making Manchego in 1880 and its Manchego cream cheese combines summer truffle harvested from Soria with the raw milk cheese. It is now being exclusively imported by Melbourne’s Maker and Monger. “It’s best served alongside lightly toasted crusty sourdough that’s been rubbed with fresh garlic and thinly sliced Iberico jamón,” says Femia. $25, makerandmonger.com.au
