“You got any cheese?” –Steve Urkel
I asked a friend “What Should I Write About Next” and the reply I got was “Cheese”, so here we go…
What Is Cheese.Com?
Cheese.Com is the source for everything…and I mean everything Cheese. They have cheese by name, by milk, by country, vegetarian cheese and so much more. You will learn more than you ever wanted to know about cheese.
Why Should I Care?
If you are interested in cheese, want to learn more about cheese, want to discover a new cheese, plan on throwing a wine & cheese party…then you should look no further than Cheese.com.
If you hate cheese and think all cheese is disgusting…then you should probably avoid this site…and you should quit being such a baby and just eat some cheese.
What Is Your Favorite Cheese?
It really depends on what I am eating. A nice sharp cheddar goes well with buttered crackers while a slice of Munster can take a wheat sandwich to a whole new level. Pepper-jack is wonderful with a spicy cumin Turkey-burger, whilst there are many wonderful Italian cheeses to spice up your pasta…
As you can tell I am a fan of cheese. What is your favorite?
Is American Cheese…Real Cheese?
Here is an excerpt from the Accidental Hedonist on the subject…
American Cheese is not cheese, at least in the traditional 'Separate curds from whey and then pack the curds' cheese-making process that, y'know, actually makes real cheese. That's not to say that there isn't real cheese in American cheese. There is.
But the cheese is also processed with emulsifiers, preservatives (sometimes something as simple as salt, other times with various chemical compounds) and often food coloring. These additives are what make defining American Cheese so difficult.
Also Karen Alloy, aka Spricket24, did a video on the topic you can view here.
Sharp v Medium v Mild Cheddar?
The older the Cheddar, the stronger or sharper the flavor.
It’s as simple as that.
In Conclusion
I will let my man make the concluding statement…
