1. Is there anything better than a classic twice-baked cheese soufflé? Gallybagger is cheddar-like and ages for four to five months on locally sourced Lawson Cypress wooden shelves, which contribute to both the moulds that you find on the rind of the cheese and the flavours inside. Richard Hodgson makes this fantastic product as well as three other Isle of Wight cheeses. Towering Gallybagger soufflés with a white onion purée are served up at the Royal Hotel in Ventnor where it has developed a cult following – they're that good.
