  • The Complete Book of Cheese by Robert Carlton Brown
    THE COMPLETE BOOK OF CHEESE BY ROBERT CARLTON BROWN Chapter One I Remember Cheese Cheese market day in a town in the north of Holland. All the cheese- fanciers are out, thumping the cannon-ball Edams and the millstone Goudas with their bare red knuckles, plugging in with a hollow steel tool for samples. In Holland the business of judging a crumb of cheese has been taken with great seriousness for centuries. The abracadabra is comparable to that of the wine-taster or tea-taster. These Edamers have the trained ear of music-masters and, merely by knuckle-rapping, can tell down to an air pocket left by a gas bubble just how mature the interior is. The connoisseurs use gingerbread as a mouth-freshener; and I, too, that sunny day among the Edams, kept my gingerbread handy and made my way from one fine cheese to another, trying out generous plugs from the heaped cannon balls that looked like the ammunition dump at Antietam. I remember another market day, this time in Lucerne. All morning I stocked up on good Schweizerkäse and better Gruyère. For lunch I had cheese salad. All around me the farmers were rolling two- hundred-pound Emmentalers, bigger than oxcart wheels. I sat in a little café, absorbing cheese and cheese lore in equal quantities. I learned that a prize cheese must be chock-full of equal-sized eyes, the gas holes produced during fermentation. They must glisten like polished bar glass. The cheese itself must be of a light, lemonish yellow. Its flavor must be nutlike.

Wieviel Vielfalt braucht eine gute Käsetheke? Muss es die über zehn Meter lange Theke mit 400 oder mehr Sorten sein? Oder wäre klein und fein eine Lösung? Diese Fragen stellen sich wahrscheinlich regelmäßig alle Sortimentsverantwortlichen, Marktinhaber ebenso wie die vielen Fachberaterinnen. Das Käseangebot ist ausreichend vorhanden, um jede gewünschte Thekengröße zu bestücken. Mancher Supermarkt oder viele SB-Warenhäuser präsentieren eine Käsevielfalt, die jeden Kä- seliebhaber verzücken lässt. Aber wieviele dieser Sorten nimmt der Kunde wahr?

  • Scandinavian Cheeses Malcom Jarvis Quesodiego Cheese Club, 19 February 2013
    Scandinavian Cheeses Malcom Jarvis QuesoDiego Cheese Club, 19 February 2013 Scandinavia is a historical region in Northern Europe characterized by a common ethno- cultural Germanic heritage and related languages. This region encompasses three kingdoms of Denmark, Norway, and Sweden. Modern Norway and Sweden proper are situated on the Scandinavian Peninsula, whereas modern Denmark is situated on the Danish islands and Jutland. Sometimes the term Scandinavia is also taken to include Iceland, the Faroe Islands, and Finland, on account of their historical association with the Scandinavian countries. Such usage, however, may be considered inaccurate in the area itself, where the term Nordic countries instead refers to this broader group. The vast majority of the human population of Scandinavia are Scandinavians, descended from several (North) Germanic tribes who originally inhabited the southern part of Scandinavia and what is now northern Germany, who spoke a Germanic language Pairing wines and cheeses from the same region is a good, “safe” place to start wine and cheese combinations. Unfortunately, the Scandinavian countries do not make any good wine that I am aware of. Cheeses Of Norway Gammelost It is a traditional Norwegian ripened table cheese with irregular blue veins made principally in the counties of Hardanger and Sogn. It is rich in protein with low fat content, measuring 1% fat and 50% protein. Moisture, not more than 52 percent (usually 46 to 52 percent) ash, 2.5 percent; and salt (in the ash), 1 percent Its name translates as "old cheese" because the rind grows a mould that makes it look old before its time.
