STILTON, TOMATO & COURGETTE QUICHE
Taken from 'Baking & Desserts' - Food Fact : Stilton is a very traditional British cheese which often makes an appearance on the cheese board or served with a ploughman's lunch. It gets much of its full pungent flavour, from its veins (created from the steel wires which are inserted into the cheese during the maturing process) It is worth loooking for a piece of Stilton with lots of veins that hs been matured for longer.
