Cheese Tray, Exotic Or Simple Pleases Variety Of Palates For casual entertaining noth- of cheese which she ar- on a tray along with fruit and crisp crackers. It's easy with clusters of fresh , rosy apples and mel- ripe pears. The '"'help- yourself" tray lends itself to leisurely nibbling and friendly KNOW WHAT TO BUY If you feel the need to brush a little before venturing forth' on a cheese shopping spree, here are a few fool-proof choices: Always choose Cheddar, no tray is complete without it. Although it's "a cheese that originated in England, Cana- dian cheese masters have been developing their own niques for over a hundred years now, so that Canadian Cheddar ranks high among the World's greats. It is govern- ment labelled as mild, medium or old depending upon the amount of aging and you can buy it creamy white in color or colored a deeper orange, depending on your own person- al inclination. Processed cheese is a close cousin to Cheddar. The flavor|? may vary from mild to meliow- sharp with added variations such as pimiento, garlic, smoked. Cream cheese is available plain or flavored. Satin-smooth in texture it is popular for both desserts and appetizers. It fs much more perishable than most and should be used within a few weeks of purchase. Gouda theese is that little red cannonball with the creamy yellow interior. Originally a cre- ation of Holland, the Canadian version has a mild, mellow flavor that everyone enjoys. The red wax coating slips off easily as it's cut, so leave it intact on the tray for a spot of color. Blue cheese is easily identi- fied because of the greenish blue network of veins that run its creamy-colored sur- face. It is most enjoyable in combination with apples or grapes. Swiss cheese, known in Switz- erland as Emmenthal, is a world-famous variety. It has a mild nut-like flavor and a firm texture with holes or which make it distinctive, Camembert and its cousin, Brie, are French. They have quite a sharp flavor and since part of their charm comes from the soft, almost runny texture of the centre, leave them out of the refrigerator for several hours before serving. Incidentally, it's quite all right to eat the outside part, too. Oka cheese, made by the Trappist monks in Quebec, is a rich, full-flavored cheese that joins the cheese tray happily. It's semi-soft and creamy- yellow in color. There are many more choices -- Brick, Colby, Limburger, Tilsit and Muenster, Stilton and Roque- fort. For party-time shopping esti- mate three or four ounces of cheese per person as a total. Buy larger quantities of the favorites and smaller quanti- ties of the lesser-known types which some guests will only sample ROOM TEMPERATURE The rule for peak flavor is} always serve cheese unchilled. | Remove it from the refrigera-| tor an hour or two before serv- ing, letting it come to room| temperature. Be sure that it is tightly wrapped during. the "warm-up," so that it won't dry out. When you want to add your Own personal touch, try blend-| ing several cheese types into a zesty spread.

Cavarin had a favoed recipe for a hot cheese dip he served his closest friends on cold wintry nights. And indeed he introduced this recipe in the newly independent United States of America. His recipe, although a fondue, was not un- like this Hot Cheese Dip. Its de- lightful flavor is due to a blend- ing of smoky Provolone cheese and mellow Canadian cheddar a simple well - seasoned cream sauce.
