Apple pie… with cheddar cheese. Some people swear by it, some people think it’s criminal — so I tested it myself. This combo actually goes back to England, where sharp cheddar was paired with sweet apple desserts to balance the flavors. When it came to the U.S., it stuck around in New England and the Midwest. I tried eight cheeses — mild white cheddar, extra sharp, seriously sharp, English cheddar, Mimolette, and even aged Gouda — to see which one actually tastes the best with warm apple pie. Come back for part 2 to see which one wins 🥧🧀 #applepie #cheddarcheese #foodpairing #cheesepairing
