Cheese Recipes
Cheese crops up in many of Delia's recipes and no surprise: from Cheddar in a classic sauce to accompany macaroni, or Stilton in an omelette to use up Christmas leftovers and three cheeses combined in a superb terrine there are many ways in which to use the world of cheeses available to us.
Buttermilk Scones with Cheshire Cheese and Chives
Cheese scones can be a bit bland, but here Delia has used tangy Cheshire cheese and peppery chives to add bite and colour. Give them a try - they're perfect for tea!

Focaccia is an Italian flat bread made with olive oil. The flavour of the oil is important, so it's advisable to use a good, strong, fruity virgin olive oil for this.
Welsh Rarebit Souffle

Asparagus Feuilletés
