Chèvre aux Fruits Abricots
May we tempt you with this devilishly diminutive cheese? I suggest buying several and starting with a couple on your Thanksgiving cheese board for the ravenous but admiring masses. Then, the next day, as you survey the holiday carnage that has happened to your home, you can put another one on leftover bread and top…

French Feta at The Cheese Box!
As you probably already know, last month featured National Sneak a Zucchini on your Neighbor’s Porch Day. I decided to let the social media frenzy die down before I made our post. Besides, I know all you gardeners still have plenty of zucchini! Now, if you have been to the shop before or have ever…

Black Garlic Manchego-Style Cheese
There are some advantages to being the head of marketing for The Cheese Box, even though it is an unpaid position currently and I am the only person in the department.

Belper Knolle
Holy moly, Belper Knolle! Just kidding, it’s pronounced kah-noll. But the holy moly part still stands since this cheese is the epitome of small but mighty. Mighty flavored that is. Made with garlic and salt—and rolled in pepper, it is most often grated on top of other foods much like truffles or parmesan. It also…

Buche de Chevre du Poitou
Today’s business. Check as many National days off as possible—in a tortured spelling list story-post—with just one cheese. Go! The cheese: Buche de Chevre du Poitou. A generic name for a non-generic cheese. It ripens from the edges inward, so you get a rind with a bit of mushroomy resistance and on into a soft,…

National Detroit Style Pizza Day
Today is National Pizza Day and we are here to help! As you may have noticed there has been a bit of a hullabaloo about the fact that we are the only place in the Greater Seattle area that always carries the Brick cheese necessary for Detroit-style pizza and that is not only great, but…
