Sharpham Mexican style cheese on toast

In Journal, Recipes by Impact DM

Recipe by Steve Parker
From his book British Cheese on Toast
Made on the Sharpham Estate on the banks of the River Dart, near Totnes in Devon, Sharpham Brie is actually closer to a French Coulommier. Handmade using unpasteurised Jersey milk and vegetarian rennet, it has a unique, meltingly soft, creamy texture and buttery flavour. The creamy delicacy of the cheese pairs beautifully with the soft, creamy avocado and the tangy lime, with the chilli providing a tongue-tingling contrast to the creaminess.
