Last year, mimolette gave me quite a scare when it looked like its sale was going to be banned in the US because of some microscopic mite on its rind. Well, mimolette is back without mite this time and it wants to be part of your Halloween celebrations.
Afterall, mimolette is round and orange, so it’s definitely a great alternative to a pumpkin for a Jack o’lantern and the French Cheese Board, the home of all things French cheese in New York city, is showcasing mimolette from October 23 to November 7 at their HQ at 26 West 39th Street. Conveniently enough, I will be in New York to cheer for a French friend running the New York marathon… looks like I’ll be meeting you soon mimo!
This is a brilliant alternative to a carved pumpkin! Do you melt the cut-out excess cheese over the lantern flame? Happy Halloween by the way!
