There is more to French Cheese than an aged Chèvre! Blue Cheese Blooming-Rind Cheese Washed-Rind Goat’s Milk Cheese Cheese Where will we go from here? 1. The history of French cheese 2.

Sources for cheese and information The Beginnings of French Cheese • The earliest solid evidence of cheesemaking was found in Poland from 5500 BCE but likely originated around 6000 BCE. • Cheesemaking and dairying was practiced by the Sumerians (2000-1000 BCE) and appears in the writings of the Greek philosopher Etricus (ca. 300 BCE) and Pliny the Elder (ca. 20 CE, well before the development of his namesake IPA). • The Romans are credited with the spread of commercial cheesemaking throughout Europe and Britain. • Cheese varieties multiplied dramatically during the middle ages and became a staple in many areas of Europe including France. What makes French cheese French? Regionality of French Cheese The Evolution of French Cheese • The French government recognized that the distinctive nature of regional cheeses reflects both technique and terroir.

  • The Fuzzy Mold on a Wheel of Fresh Brie Is Called Cats Fur
    The Fuzzy Mold On A Wheel Of Fresh Brie Is Called Cats Fur National Moldy Cheese Day is a unique holiday that is observed each year on October 9. A cheesemonger is a person who specializes in cheeses, butter, and other dairy products. They may take umbrage at the ordinary person’s offense of moldy cheese. Like a sommelier pairs the best wines with meals, a cheesemonger provides expert advice on artisan cheeses for recipes, banquets, and sources for restaurants. Cheeses such as Maytag blue, Roquefort, Brie, bleu, camembert, gorgonzola, and Stilton are a few of the moldy reasons cheese lovers celebrate on this day. Moldy cheese gets such colorful phrases. For example, the fuzzy mold on a wheel of fresh brie is called cats fur. These bloomy rind cheeses take some careful maintenance. However, the results are satisfying. Isn’t the best food is a bit of a science experiment, anyway? Gorgonzola cheese is made with three different kinds of mold spores. It’s like a milder blue cheese, but gorgonzola is creamier and earthier. Toss it with pasta and mushrooms for an outstanding meal. Also, it compliments any cheese plate. Add apples and tart, dried cranberries. Did you know that there are over 2,000 varieties of cheeses? The #1 cheese recipe in America is “Macaroni and Cheese”. What appears to be the remains of cheese has been found in Egyptian tombs over 4,000 years old! The terms “Big Wheel” and “Big Cheese” originally referred to those who were wealthy enough to purchase a whole wheel of cheese.

Chambers1, Edgar Chambers IV1 and Dallas Johnson2 1The Sensory Analysis Center, Department of Human Nutrition, Kansas State University, Justin Hall, Manhattan, KS 66506-1407, USA 2Department of Statistics, Kansas State University, Dickens Hall, Manhattan, KS 66506, USA Abstract Intensities of 30 flavor attributes were measured for 42 cheeses. Rated intensities of flavor characteristics generally fell in the low to moderate range for all cheeses. Some of the flavor characteristics (dairy fat, dairy sour, dairy sweet, sharp, astringent, bitter, salty, sour, and sweet) were present in all cheeses, and some (cooked milk, animalic, goaty, fruity, moldy, mushroom, and nutty) were specific to only a few of the cheeses evaluated in this study. The flavor of each of the 42 cheeses is described. Similarities in flavor were observed among many of the individual cheeses. Therefore, a clustering scheme was developed to show the overall flavor relationships among the cheeses. Those relationships are schematically represented by a tree diagram. Proximity on the tree diagram indicates a high degree of flavor similarity among the types of cheese. Introduction In most countries, consumption of cheese has been on the rise over the past decades (Richards, 1989; Magretti, 1996; Havrila, 1997; Hoebermann, 1997; Anonymous, 2002).

Pairings can be elaborate or impromptu – all it takes is a little creativity and a few good friends to help savor one of life’s culinary treasures: cheese. 1 Getting Started You don’t have to purchase a lot of different varieties of cheese to capture the pleasure of cheese. Choose two or three types, including cheeses with a variety of textures, colors and shapes. Or, choose one outstanding cheese to experience. Above all, remember… there is no wrong way when it comes to cheese pairing… only degrees of right! We all react differently to flavors, so follow your taste buds where they lead. 2 Storing Cheese Storing cheese properly is easier than you think. Remove newly purchased cheese from its plastic covering, wrap in cheese, waxed or parchment paper, then store it in a loose plastic bag.

  • Smaller Production Cheeses
    SMALLER PRODUCTION CHEESES LA TUR Milk – Cow, sheep, and goat Origin – Caseifi cio Dell’Alta Langa, Alta Lange, Piedmont, Italy Rind – Natural, beginning to form bloom Paste – Hedonistic velvety creamy mousse-like center, with just a hint of runny creaminess near the surface Aging – 15 days at the caseifi cio. FIGURE 3.13 La Tur Should be eaten fresh This was described by a local cheesemonger as the “sexiest cheese in the world.” In fact, she said that some of her customers (at the Cheese Plate in New Paltz, NY) will come by for a wheel if they’ve had a particularly bad day . and go home to eat the whole thing with a spoon. While cheese therapy is not normally recommended, it does provide an idea of how deeply satisfying La Tur can be. All three milks add to its broad balance of fresh fl avors – each one adds some of its own character without being obvi- ous. The most important thing to remember is to take this cheese out of the refrigera- tor at least a half hour before serving it. For the texture to be at its best, it should be closer to room temperature. ROBIOLA Milk – Cow, goat, or a blend of the two, sometimes with the addition of sheep’s milk Origin – Mostly from Lombardia and Piemonte, some from the Langhe, Northern Italy Rind – Usually natural, acquiring bloom or mold with age. Some are wrapped in leaves, either chestnut or Savoy cabbage. Paste – Depending on age, the tex- ture is almost always moist, with varying degrees of creaminess Aging – as little as 3 to 10 days, FIGURE 3.14 Robiola Bosina but the more complex versions are aged up to 3 months D.O.P.

  • Camembert and Brie
    Dairy Foods Consulting Westminster Artisan Cheesemaking Peter Dixon, MS Artisan Cheesemaker Camembert and Brie Although similarities occur in the way these cheeses are made and ripened, Camembert originated in Normandy and Brie in the Ile-de-France, a region surrounding Paris. Another difference between Brie and Camembert is the size. Brie is made in one-kilo 9” diameter (2.2-2.5 lb.) and Grand 14.5” diameter (5-6 lb.) wheels; Camembert is made in a 4” diameter (250 gram or 8.5 oz.) disc. The thickness of both is approx. 1.25“. In the traditional methods of making of these cheeses, raw milk is used and the cheeses are aged a minimum of 21 days before sale. The well known raw milk Brie cheeses are Brie de Melun and Brie de Meaux. The Camembert de Normandie should have “au lait cru” and “moule a la louche” displayed on the label to be authentically made from raw milk. When the curd is ladled by hand, it drains for a longer time, up to 48 hours, before the cheeses can be removed from the forms. Hand salting with a coarse flake salt is required. These three cheeses are designated as A.O.C. so the names are protected and the entire processes of making the cheeses follows strict guidelines. This recipe was developed by the French cheesemakers that I worked with from 1986-1987. They made the A.O.C. Brie de Meaux and Brie de Melun but adapted this recipe to provide a more modern approach for making these traditional cheeses from pasteurized milk.
