Potted Cheese is an old English recipe for a cheese spread. It was originally created to use up odds and end of cheeses. I make mine with cheddar but you can use any cheese or mixture of cheeses you would like.
Just put all the ingredients in the bowl of a stand mixer or food processor and mix until creamy, scraping the bowl a couple of times.
Cover and refrigerate for at least a couple of hours. It will store for a week or more covered in the refrigerator. Take out and let sit at room temperature for 15 to 30 minutes before serving.
The Verdict
This makes a strongly flavoured adult cheese spread. It has strong cheese flavours and the sherry really kicks it up!
