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. Regionality in French cheese (AOC) 3. French cheese varieties 4. Some examples and recipes 5. 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.

Most people take it for granted and think any piece of cheese will taste excellent with a sip of wine. But…it’s not that simple. In reality, pairing wine and cheese can be quite complicated, far more complicated than a chunk of Cheddar and a glass of Merlot. This is because there is not just one kind of cheese or one kind of wine. And like wine, cheese comes in a variety of forms. Cheeses vary in Store Hours moisture and fat content, texture, and flavor.

  • CHEESE Or FROMAGE
    CHEESE or FROMAGE Cheese is a solid derivative of milk. It is produced by coagulating the protein (CAESIN) in milk so that it forms curds - usually by adding RENNET (outer agent used to seperate the milk protein) - and draining off the liquid (WHEY). Cheese then undergoes a ripening process, during which it changes in taste, texture and appearance and each variety takes on its own particular characteristics. Some cheeses develop veining during ripening, while other form holes or 'EYES'. Veining is caused by a bacteria in the cheese, which may occur naturally, or may be introduced. All cheeses develop a rind or crust of some sort, or are given one artificially such as red wax rind of EDAM. Some cheeses, such as BRIE & CAMEMBERT, develop a mould on the outside surface which produces enzymes which help ripen the cheese from outside towards the center. Most cheese is made from 'EWES' milk with a small amount made from 'COWS' or `GOATS' milk. The type of milk and the different techniques used to seperate the curds and whey and ripen the cheese result in the many different types of cheese. Climate, vegetation and seasonal changes can also influence the finished cheese, which means that some varieties can only be produced in a certain area and cannot br produced in large quantities or under factory conditions. CHEDDAR, however lends itself well to factory techniques. Although CAESIN makes up 78% of the milk protein, there are other proteins present in smaller quantities, but they are soluble and are drained out with the WHEY. The whey may be then processed to curdle the remaining protein and used to make low fat cheese such as RICOTTA - a moist, unsalted Italian cheese.

  • 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.

  • Quase Toda a Gente Gosta De Queijo
    QUEIJO Quase toda a gente gosta de Queijo. Mas ? COMO APARECEU QUAIS OS MELHORES QUAIS OS MAIS CAROS AS INÚMERAS VARIEDADES AS REGIÕES DE ORIGEM e outras coisas! MITOLOGIA Segundo a mitologia, o queijo teria sido descoberto por Aristeu, filho de Apolo. A História confirma a sua antiguidade: Os Assírios, os Caldeus e os Egípcios e, posteriormente, os Grecos e os Romanos apreciavam o queijo, utilizando-o na alimentação dos seus soldados e atletas. A Odisseia de Homero (século VIII a.C.) descreve o Ciclope fazendo e armazenando queijo do leite de ovelha e de cabra. a LENDA Uma famosa lenda conta que o primeiro queijo foi feito acidentalmente por um mercador árabe que, ao sair para cavalgar por uma região montanhosa, debaixo do sol escaldante, levou uma bolsa cheia de leite de cabra para matar a sede. Após um dia inteiro a galope, o árabe, morto de sede, pegou no seu cantil para beber, e deparou-se com uma grande surpresa; o leite encontrava-se separado em duas partes: um líquido fino e esbranquiçado (o soro) e uma porção sólida (o queijo). A transformação deu-se devido ao calor intenso do sol, ao galope do cavalo e ao material do cantil (uma bolsa feita de estômago de carneiro) que ainda continha o coalho (substância que coagula o leite). Queijo "mumificado" será o mais antigo do mundo já encontrado. Estava sólido, dentro de uma tumba egípcia, construída no século 13 a.C., o que faz com que o queijo tenham cerca de 3.300 anos. O Queijo: gravura da época ilustrando o fabrico artesanal e o consumo doméstico.
