Cheese by Hand
Several  years ago, Michael Claypool and Sasha Davies ditched their corporate jobs to devote themselves full-time to a more satisfying pursuit: cheese. Now, they are sampling their way across the U.S., dropping in on the country's artisanal cheesemakers and indulging in the fresh mozzarella, bandage-wrapped cheddar, Georgia Gouda, and other handmade, rindy goodness they find along the way. After each farm visit, they update their site with a chatty profile of their new friends' history and aging and pasteurizing techniques. Once you've snacked on the creamy selection here, you will know not only which farmer recently suffered a fire, but who never intended to make cheese and who bet it all on a loan. And though you will surely end with a lip-smacking yen for pecan chèvre, smokey blue, or Bavarian Swiss—you will also know where to get yourself a generous plateful. (in Food & Drink) |
