- Stilton cheese takes its name from the village of Stilton, in the east of England. The earliest reports of cheese made and sold here date to the 17th century. In 1724, English writer Daniel Defoe referred to the town being "famous for cheese," calling the product the "English Parmesan." Today, Stilton can only be made in six dairies, which are spread across three counties in England: Nottinghamshire, Leicestershire, and Derbyshire. We visited Colston Bassett Dairy in Nottinghamshire to learn more about the cheese is made.

How Traditional English Stilton Cheese Is Made At A 100-Year-Old Dairy | Regional Eats
Whenever I see big blocks of cheese, I get this overwhelming craving to eat cheese.
Yumyummmyummm
I want to take a big bite of that gigantic block and run away. They won’t catch me
@@margaritam.9118 Until you need to shit because of the sheer amount of cheese in your stomach.
Me too!
Facts
This lady has the best job. Insider sends her all over Europe just to report on food.
Ikr
@@eugefederico1178 I know right!!!!!!?!?!! *NOT ikr!!!!!*
Ayam is delicious take a chill pill lady..🙄
Yet she still doesnt like most of the foodshe has to try
It would be great until you get married and have kids.
This is how Geronimo Stilton got his family name.
I was literally about to make a geronimo stilton reference
Aahh you beat me to it
Yes
I guess everyone is a producer now a days.
Coincidentally, there was a Geronimo Stilton book on how their family name was being sued by Stilton Chees

Everyone else: *Places cheese gingerly*
Her: *SCHLOP*
"And that bit of cheese is now dead."

BMW W. Bruh what’s ur prob
@BMW W. you are annoying
He the boss was low-key angry

The fact that Stilton Cheese can't officially be made in 'Stilton, England' is horrendously stupid.
You can blame EU bureaucrats for that
+liz zie Stilton is a village in Cambridgeshire - you could have figured that out with a five second Google search.
@@chimpaflimp It's not the EU that decides that, it's the UK government.
@Shogun Wrong. The EU sets food location protection law.
Agree
I actually love this guy. His presentation is really clear, brilliant and fun. And I respect him for the fact he employed more humans than machines.
He keeps a hat where cheese is made. Come on! 🤣
Your right , they employed your kind for 300 years for free of charge and tax , they where fun and brilliant times
@@gorillachilla Do you think I should still be stuck in past. Chill bro. Times changed. So are people. I agree racism exists. But that doesn’t mean I should be a racist like you, to hate some one based on race.
@@gorillachilla Brits stay winning, Panjeets stay whining.
@@gorillachilla And was this man involved in any way? Was he alive? Did he do anything to an Indian? You are pathetic.
the expression on her face when tasting the cheese was of sheer appreciation, wonderful to see it communicated well
The 100th cheese video I've seen this year. FI now has a case to create a new channel called Cheese Insider. 🧀
True
@@madhuhitesh88 I still enjoy it. Maybe they should feature some cheese stuff in LA where I am from!
Lmao 😜. Cheese Insider, that's a good one! It's true though, they are definitely smelling up CZcams with the amount of cheese videos they've produced this year, hehe.. 😂
Yeah Must Change it
Grate idea
Having worked in Italy for several years it was surprising how many had been to Britain and loved the food. Most of them thought it was going to be bland and tasteless, oh no it's not.
British food looks extremely unappealing, but it's quite tasty(i'm not British but I live in the UK)
@@theslavicimmigrant4795 the best way i find to describe it to those that dont like in the uk is that, comfort food doesnt have to look good. most of our food looks pretty bad can't lie, but everything tastes good!
I think Britain and "bland food" became synonymous after WW2 until the eighties, I can remember some very bland and bad food, even in restaurants in the seventies. But that all started to change in the early eighties and now our food can compete with any countries.
@@theslavicimmigrant4795 when you consider the U.K. as rock jutting out into the frigid North Atlantic you eat what you have available to you… We can’t all grow olives and tomatoes after all 😂
@@theslavicimmigrant4795 yes butter chicken is delicious 😋😋😋
Italian here, my mouth is watering. I already imagining it melted on the pan with some milk and some slices of parmesan. In the mean time cooking some pancetta on the side and add everything togheter with the pasta, mammamiaaaaa
Stilton, alongside REAL Cheddar: saving England’s culinary honour, in this Frenchman’s eye.
Try cornish yarg if you can. Its less popular but very nice.
Neal's Yard Dairy makes a point of saving British cheeses "on the verge of extinction." Stilton, Cheddar, Cheshire, Red Leicester, Lancashire, Cornish Yarg, and more. Great place!
What about fish and chip
@@andywu1981 fish and chips is really good but always best at the coast, like a day out at the beach, or a cold wintery day/night.
I used to live with a French student and she hated most British food - but she loved Stilton and it became her favourite cheese. She even bought an entire wheel of it.
It's always wonderful to hear about the history, stories and culture surrounding the food we enjoy eating.
A quality Stilton on a good homemade Sourdough slice is my idea of heaven in the morning.
Disgusting and you should be ashamed of yourself.
at lunch what you eat petard?
@Khiem Huynh false
@Khiem Huynh False. I want to eat a Boeing 747 jet, but I can't. I agree with KLZ.
@@crosh3301 Yes. I want to eat a corpse, but I can't.
7:08 When I was a vegetarian, the reason I never became vegan is that I refused to stop eating Stilton. When I went to Neal's Yard, and was talking to a cheesemonger I was rattling on about Stilton, and he started talking about the differences in taste based on the time of year and the dairy from which they came...basically, there are vintages of Stilton. He gave me different samples from different dairies and of different ages, and there really were noticeable differences. Best cheese on earth, hands down. Try it in a sandwich, of crusty bread with Branston pickle. Bliss.
Best with a glass (or 3) of PORT.....
Have it with fig jam, never felt happier in my life
@@stevefowler3398 💯💯💯
It’s so nice to see a mainland European really like british product. I love Stilton.
Another mainland European here...i dislike most blue cheeses bar Stilton. Texture and taste are superior to roquefort or Gorgonzola in my opinion. Britain has superb cheeses. :)
Anna Sade thank you. European food is the best. I do like Gorgonzola too.
@@jonathanmcaleece9834 Yes it's ok, but Stilton has a nicer texture than Gorgonzola imo. And Red Leicester is one of my all-time-favourite cheeses.
I love stilton. Capetonian. South Africa.
@@LostInWotsoever you know Gorgonzola exist even in hard texture? Maybe you’ll like that more, it’s also stronger, different variations for different purposes
If any of these fine folks that make this heavenly cheese read this I want to say "thank you" for enriching my life and making the world a better place to live in. You people and your work are treasures to be sure!
This Dairy is 10 miles from my house. Never been, maybe this weekend. It is Christmas after all.
@IngLouisSchreurs its everywhere and its Christmas ;-;
Did you go?
Send me some cheese, Thanks :D
That.. or... im coming to visit
Oh really how lucky European are. we poor Indians 😂😂😂
Did you go?
I work in a fancy cheese shop and blue stilton is one of my favorites! Definitely try it if you ever get the chance!
Try SHROPSHIRE BLUE if you get a chance.
To me, it is on a par, if not better.
I wouldn't envy someone for material things. but I envy your job 1000%%%
Thanks for showing us how this great-tasting cheese is made. It's my favourite English cheese ever. Mmh...beef and stilton Cornish pasty... broccoli and stilton soup...crumbled over a salad. Yum
That sounds absolutely delicious. 😋
Cant beat a good steak and stilton pie. I always go for stilton to make the pie in question as the water content in the likes of Gorgonzola and Roquefort is too high, The only blue cheese that comes close to stilton that is viable for pies and cheese sauce etc in my opinion is Danish blue.
Im french and i love stilton cheese
"And that bit of cheese is now dead."
ThisIsSolution it wasn’t the scoop that was the problem, it was the plop from up high. Not exactly a fine art, but she could have least tried to imitate what they were teaching her lol
IngLouisSchreurs cheese abuse is among the most serious of crimes. Thank goodness that blue haired man caught it, he’s truly a hero 😂
Cheese maker: Omae wa mou... shindeiru.
Cheese: Nani???
Not her fault, don't expect someone with no experience to do it as someone that have been doing the same thing for decades.
@@ThisIsSolution not that serious dude. Im sure it was a joke
stilton cheese is underrated. Far more complex than lots of other bleu cheeses
I have such a confusing relationship with stilton. Love its taste but it smells of socks found in a gym changing room.
Puts Gorgonzola to shame imo.
Stilton... Food of the gods.😋
NOT under-rated at all.
It is known as the king of cheese for good reason.
@@Big-Chungus21 the smellier the cheese the better
Stilton and broccoli soup is just to die for.
Not not really nobody had heard of it, stop eating poo
A glass of Port and a slice of Stilton cheese…heaven.
Beautiful cheese, taste and texture wise. A long time favorite.
You all need to get her and the crew that do these videos on more assignments. This is by far the best content on your channel IMO.
Only clicked a cheese video once and now my recommendations are full of cheese
Geronimo Stilton got me interested in this cheese
heh same
Yah me too
Wait where's that part, I don't want to watch the whole video just to find out about the only part that interests me
At least you're protected from the toxicicity of Geronimo cheese
One of the best cheeses on our planet. Delicious!
Christmas isn't Christmas without stilton and port. I like Carrs Table Water Biscuits to accompany, but Jacobs Crackers are good too.
As a Swiss, I have to say: Stilton is the best cheese on the planet. By far.
@@beckysnow1157 Appenzeller’s alright, haven’t tried Maxx 365. Looks good, though, will try to get it soon. Still, Stilton is King.
I was sitting here munching on blue cheese and craved a truly immersive experience. Now I can watch blue cheese be made whist I eat blue cheese. 10/10
Amazing how the process is developed over the years and followed
By far my favorite cheese.
Stilton is the most delicious cheese - my very favourite! 🇬🇧
The best blue cheese I've tasted so far. Who would have thought? Love you, greetings from Finland.
Danish blue is right next to you. Hahahahaha. It is good, but not as good as Stilton.
My favorite cheese hands down! The first time I had a Ploughman's Lunch at a pub (Wheatsheaf?) near Grafham Water reservoir I fell in love with this cheese. It was a simple fare, bread, butter, Branston Pickle, a bit of lettuce, tomato, and cucumber, and of course the Stilton. Fond memories riding my mountain bike 'round Grafham and stopping off to eat a Ploughman's Lunch and quaff a pint of ale before cycling home to Buckden.

@Anthony Lopez you enjoy movies tv shows and books in your day to day life so why do you insist on being a dick when it comes to people who enjoy video games I think it's more sad to cherish a work of art you cant actually interact with because it has less of an impact on you and is a waste of time (fictional stories and movies not educational books)
Why everyone being such a holes in this comment section.
Happy trees aren’t you being one by calling them names? 😂😂😂
This cheese is insanely good.
England has some of the finest cheese in the world in my opinion
I’ve tried many blue cheeses and Stilton is hands down my absolute favorite!
You need this... Goes well with Glenmorangie whiskey....

I’ve never had a cheese other than plain white/orange cheese so I might ask my mom for something different like blue cheese
Might be a difficult transition. Try Mature English Cheddar or Leicestershire first. If those are too sharp… you won’t survive stilton
Stilton is a magnificent cheese. I try to have some each year, around Christmas time.
Just something utterly wonderful about seeing huge loads of piled-up cheese! It has to be the ultimate comfort food!
My absolute favorite cheese! Wonderful video, thank you.
So satisfying to watch how these cheeses are made
This has quickly become my favorite cheese ever
Good to see a production that has a considerable human, hands on factor involved as opposed to a fully automated production line. Interesting - I 💜 Stilton even if it's not made there.
Best cheese on the planet!! So good!!!!!
Blessed are the cheesemakers...
Stilton is one of the world’s great foods. I am an avid consumer. I have even had Stichelton. However, I have never had the OLD traditional Stilton with the bugs. Modern hygienic production may have changed the taste irrevocably in ways we will never know. I have had Mimolette and, even though the rind had been scraped, found a live cheese mite in a piece of rind under a microscope.
You gonna tell us why you were looking at your cheese under a microscope?
You know people are insane when they eat cheese that has bugs and fungus on it.
*useful video, thanks AD*
Thank you. I love the finished product as an additive with cooking.
Stilton is one of my absolute faves!
I love Stilton. Only had it once but it left a lasting impression.
Stilton has to be in the top 10 of world cheese. The king of cheeses
You explained it as beautifully as
You are
Your video of sardines made me go out and buy a can to try, and I love it!!
It sounded like she said "Nothing I'm sure, England" I'm glad they showed the spelling lol
My grandma had stilton shipped to her and it was amazing cheese
Wow!!! This is my first time to watch this!!! Amazing!!
Over two hundred years ago, Mrs. Musson, a Stilton maker, was quoted as saying: "Stiltons, with the exception that they make no noise, are more trouble than babies."

Maybe it makes him feel like he has hair.

Mmmm. Stilton. One of my favourites. So unique !
This cheese is SOO delicious. I have a wedge and I am savoring every bite.

Got to try some for the first time a week ago. It was not as strong as i expected, but ALOT of flavours, i really liked it.
Definitely fascinating to see cheese made.
This is one of my favorite cheeses. Yumm.
That is some beautiful cheese. I love Stilton.
The King of cheeses.
Stilton cheese is awesome!
Thank you for what you do.
Love it. Thanks. This is culture.
my mom and grandma be talking abt what courses in college they want for me while i already decided to be a cheese master
Its good to have centuries year old businesses and tradition that makes certainties worldwide, it is uniquely English and most companies to be as time concrete and evident as well as formidable as English businesses are.
Uniquely English? Schweppes started making sparkling water in 1738 in a country that doesn't exist anymore, for one example off the top of my head
@@johnr797 schweppes ..sparkling water is understood amongst European countries and the rest of the world, the way Perrier In France of the same product that adds sparkle to the water, is understood as quality, torn and rip ingredients to best suit the growing appetite for recognition and success, englishing schweppes.
@@Rod-bp8ow ok, did you like your own comment? Staffelter Hof is a winery that has been open for over 1150 years.
@@johnr797 unfamiliar, yet the brand sounds promising... Looks like its another Jack Tavern that has plenty of products to choose from, from food, drinks, chocolates, collectibles, it has it all.
@@Rod-bp8ow I'd just like to know if you liked your own comment or not, frankly. We both already knew that companies persisting through the ages wasn't uniquely British, but all I want to know is if you posted something and were so pleased with yourself that you decided to tell yourself how much you liked it.
Love this!
Thank you God blessed you
I have an urge for stilton and port :-)
Sandy Toes Detecting my favourite combination ❤️
Colton Bassett Stilton is considered one of the best. Drink port with it for a wholly different taste profile.
This is a good video about the history of Stilton. To learn more about the actual process of making it, I recommend the How It's Made video about Stilton.
Yehey! Another cheese video. Thanks!
I'm a cheese making addict. I've always wanted to try my hand at making Stilton and I finally did so yesterday! So glad I watched this video though because if I hadn't, I would have pierced my cheese too early! Great video. I would be so thrilled if my cheese turns out as yummy! I'm curious though if it tastes similar to the French Bleu, Forme Albert'. I've made that cheese and it turned out to be one of my favorites. ❣️
So how was it? Tasted good?
@@leonardotube he died after eating the cheese
@@cafebean bro what a cheesy joke
I know Karen, she found her real self in Buddhism, became Vegetarian and donated her cheese to charity, may Rama Vishnu bless her heart
@@almendratlilkouatl vegetarians eat cheese though
My favorite take on 🇬🇧 staple’s Huntsman cheese. Basically Double Gloucester and Stilton fused into a dairy matrimony.
A cheesegasm.
Colton Bassett is phenomenal.
I used to not like blue cheese when I was a kid, but now I love having it with French bread, so good
Same, it rlly grew on me😂 can't get enough now
I like this version of 🧀.
I love Stilton cheese, absolutely my favorite I want a whole wheel but I can't afford it
I used to live near a braziers dairies. Also went on a tour of it if I remember correctly. Then went on to study in nottingham for four years. Great stuff. Ameet
I've been learning A LOT abou cheese this quarantine.
delicious!
used to cut a hole, pour in wine and set aside until worms emerge, now people don't even know about this old tradition.
I wonder why the tradition died out....🤔
@@horsenuts1831 probably because it’s a waste of good wine.
