The festive period is not only the season of goodwill, it’s also a time for retailers to have a little fun. The cheeky souls at Aldi have taken a controversial vegetable and made it the star of the show.
The classic camembert is given a festive twist by the addition of a festively green sprout pesto. The new Specially Selected Baking Camembert with Sprout Pesto (£2.99, 290g) is available in Aldi stores from today.
Not only is this sprout camembert a great talking point for families over Christmas, it is also a bold addition to a regular Christmas cheese board.
When baked, the camembert becomes magnificently molten and creamy, perfect for dipping and swiping your favourite crudites and crackers through.
Bread and cheese are perfect partners, so if you want something a little more substantial to dunk into your sprout camembert, try hearty chunks of Specially Selected 2 Bake At Home Sourdough Baguettes (95p, 250g).
Cheese lovers can go all out by pairing this quirky cheese with Aldi’s Ultimate Grazing Platter (£5.99, 423g). Dig into a gorgeous selection of continental cheese and snacking rollitos as you enjoy time with family and friends.
Of course every cheese board needs a chutney and the Caramelised Red Onion Chutney (99p, 310g) will not disappoint.
Sipping port whilst nibbling on cheese is one of the most enjoyable ways to spend a cold evening in the festive season. Pour a generous snifter of Aldi’s Fletchers LBV Port (£9.99, 75cl) and serve alongside your cheese feast.
