How Camembert Is Made
Monday, September 21st, 2009While camembert may not be one of the first cheeses you think of making, we found this description of traditional camembert-making fascinating. Quality milk is essential and the cheese must have a minimum 45% fat content.
Camembert originated in the town of Camembert (imagine!) over two hundred years ago. Located in the Normandy region of France, this area is also known for its apples and seafood. Camembert is a soft, creamy cheese with a salty taste best enjoyed at room temperature.
And for you camembert pilgrims out there, this site is also guide to the area and its cheeses.
