Sussex Slipcote refers to a traditional mild, soft
cheese with a light, fresh creamy and very soft fluffy texture, a slightly sharp refreshing
flavor and a
sweet, refreshing citrus taste or a clean slightly sharp lemony
taste. It is made with pasteurised sheep
milk. It is a cheese suitable also for vegetarians.
The name "Slipcote" is an old English word meaning little (slip) piece of cottage (cote) cheese. It was originally called Slipcote because the cheese curds used to mature too fast and the cheese would slip out of the cloth (or 'coat') it was in.
Sussex Slipcote is made near Duddleswell in East Sussex.
The cheese is made Plain or with the addition of Peppercorns, Herbs and Garlic,
Basil or
Mint in 100g buttons attractively packaged in clear containers or as a rolled log weighing about 500g.
Sussex Slipcote is a spreadable cheese from England that goes well with crusty
bread,
biscuits, a jacket
potato or stirred into
pasta. Sussex Slipcote can also be used as a table cheese and
baking and is especially good in
tomato dishes such as
quiches or
salads.
