Our Story Of Cheese...OUR STORY OF “A slice of good cheese is never just a thing to eat. It is usually also a slice of local history: agricoultural, political, or ecclesiastical.

    30 Crusade. It has become Slow Food’s new hot topic: from this point forth, “sentinels of flavour” will be prohibited from using commercial starter cultures. Along with the “natural cheese” designation, strong philosophical aspirations are emerging—ones that stand the test of the industry’s needs and realities. “Natural” cheeses: going the distance? R D By Débora The theme of this year’s Slow Food Cheese Kefir grains Pereira event (slated to take place in Bra, Italy, from September 15 to 18) is Natural is Possible, advocating cheesemaking without the use of commercial starter cultures. “It is a question of biodiversity preservation,” argues Piero Sardo, President of the Slow Food Foundation for Biodiversity. “Nowadays, everyone is using the same starter cultures, thereby erasing the ability to link a cheese to its terroir. Moreover, it is a matter of survival for small farmers. I am surprised,” he points out, “by how difficult it is for the French to Methods address this issue.” He believes that there is There are four no logic to working with raw milk if you are main methods to going to use commercial starter cultures. cultivate starter However, apart from the Brousse du Rove, cultures at home: most French “sentinel” cheeses, such as Salers backslopping Tradition, Laguiole, and the cheeses of the whey from one summer pastures of the Basque Pyrenees, cheese to make resort to exogenous starter cultures, at least to Marie-Christine Montel, a retired microbiologist another (such as kick off the season. of INRA’s Aurillac cheese facility, remembers how the Salers AOP (protected designation of with farmstead • Backslopping origin) greatly benefited from the introduction of lactic chevres) commercial starter cultures since, at the time, it backslopping provided solutions to manufacturing problems The main challenge for those who engage in on fermented such as post-acidification.

  • Fromages De Chèvre La Corne D’Abondance
    LE LIVRE BLANC DES FROMAGES DE CHÈVRE LA CORNE D’ABONDANCE AVRIL 2018 ÉDITORIAL LES RICHESSES DE LA VACHE DU PAUVRE La chèvre fut longtemps considérée comme la vache du pauvre. Parce qu’elle se satisfait de terres arides, la chèvre et les fromages qui sont issus de son lait se sont implantés dans des territoires délaissés par les bovins. Olivier de Serres vantait les mérites des chèvres parce que « de leur lait communément sortent de bons fromages ; leurs chairs sont bonnes à manger, leurs peaux utiles et leur fumier serviable ». Difficile de parler du fromage de chèvre de manière générale tant les possibilités et les différences – de forme, de pâte, d’affinage et de goût – sont nombreuses. Certains prétendent même que la France est le pays des 1001 fromages de chèvre. Ce qui est sûr, c’est que quatorze d’entre eux possèdent une AOP. Ce livre blanc ne sera donc pas exhaustif, il s’attardera cependant sur quelques fromages remarquables comme le rocamadour ou le banon et tentera de démontrer l’incroyable richesse des fromages de chèvre. Laurent Seminel Le livre blanc des fromages de chèvre 3 LE TÉMOIGNAGE DE FRÉDÉRIC KAISER* « J’ai effectué mes stages d’école hôtelière en Dordogne et je travail- lais alors beaucoup le rocamadour ainsi que son alter ego le cabécou. Un autre moment de ma vie professionnelle est lié au fromage de chèvre. En effet, avant de venir à Paris, j’ai travaillé huit ans sur la Côte-d’Azur. Là, nous avions la chance de proposer régulièrement du banon. C’est un fromage que j’adore pour son aspect intrigant mais surtout pour le plaisir intense qu’il procure à la dégustation.

  • Chambolle-Musigny
    Chambolle-Musigny APPELLATION D’ORIGINE CONTRÔLÉE (Protected Designation of Origin) Village appellation in the Côte de Nuits region, in Côte-d'Or. This appellation has 24 Climats classified as Premier Cru. Commune producing wine: Chambolle-Musigny. The commune of Chambolle-Musigny also produces two Grands Crus: MUSIGNY (See SHEET No. 54) and BONNES-MARES (See SHEET No. 5). The CHAMBOLLE-MUSIGNY and CHAMBOLLE-MUSIGNY PREMIER CRU appellations may or may not be followed by the name of the Climat. STYLE OF THE WINES A red wine, Chambolle-Musigny is often presented as the most "feminine" of the Côte de Nuits. And there is an elegant subtlety in its intensity and finesse. The colour is a lively, bright, glittering ruby red. It can darken slightly, but keeps its sparkle. Violets, red berries (strawberries, raspberries) make up the highly characteristic bouquet. With time, it evolves towards ripe, spicy fruit and prunes, or truffles, undergrowth and gamey notes. Rich, with powerful, complex aromas, it coats the palate with silk and lace. Delicate and full-bodied, it nonetheless maintains a solid, long-lasting structure. Quite soft, with relatively little acidity, the tannins remain gentle, caressing the palate. THE SOMMELIER'S RECOMMENDATIONS Red: combining power and femininity, this wine goes well with sophisticated, flavourful meat dishes such as game birds served in sauce, a Bresse capon or slowly roasted lamb. Roast veal is another good pairing; the meat's subtle texture will be delicately coated by the Chambolle's silky yet dense tannins, especially the Premiers Crus. For cheeses, preference should be given to those with mild flavours such as Brillat Savarin, reblochon, cîteaux, vacherin, brie de Meaux or chaource.

  • Livre Blanc Des Pâtes Pressées De Montagne Les Princes Des Hauts Plateaux
    LE LIVRE BLANC DES PÂTES PRESSÉES DE MONTAGNE LA PATIENCE DU FROMAGER MAI 2016 ÉDITORIAL LES PRINCES DES HAUTS PLATEAUX (À FROMAGES) Les fromages à pâte pressée de montagne que nous allons vous pré- senter ici possèdent de nombreux points communs tout en étant tous différents. Fromages d’altitude, ce sont tous des fromages de garde – plus ou moins longue – car ils ont été, durant des siècles, le seul moyen de conserver le lait. Si le reblochon, la tomme de Savoie et le saint-nec- taire se consomment rapidement, le cantal, l’abondance, le beaufort, l’ossau-iraty, la raclette de Savoie ou le beaumont de Savoie sont des fromages qui se consomment plusieurs mois après leur fabrication. Chacun de ces fromages est à l’image du massif qui l’a vu naître. Leur lait, leur forme, leur technique de fabrication, leur affinage sont le reflet de l’activité sociale des montagnards qui, au fil du temps, en ont précisé la fabrication. Tous ces fromages sont nés de la nécessité, en s’adaptant à la rudesse de leur paysage. Puis, au cours du temps, la passion, le savoir-faire et la patience de l’homme ont métamorphosé ces rustres fromages en princes des hauts plateaux.
