And Brie or Epoisses? Forget it! <br />According to federal law, unpasteurized cheeses cannot be imported because they are thought to be harmful. They become legal, once they have been aged at least 60 days in a 35 degrees Fahrenheit environment. During this process, the cheese becomes more acidic, killing most potential sources of bacterial infection, while loosing its essential flavor.<br />There is one bright light. Recently Whole Food imported a Camembert, called Herve Mons Camembert, that although pasteurized,in texture and flavor comes close to the real McCoy. Harold McGee wrote about it in the Times. George immediately called Whole Food to inquire. <br />So far, we have been able to buy it twice. It was worth the Schlepp. <br />HelenOur Daily Dinnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00561210546390181941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8120224022411165795.post-45384196207049620172010-04-26T12:19:05.663-04:002010-04-26T12:19:05.663-04:00Helen,

Are t...Helen,<br />A series on cheese would be great!<br /> <br />Are there any sources of authentic, unpasteurized cheeses in the US? I believe the Epoisses I've had were Berthault. <br /><br />Your comments have made me eager to try some authentic Munster cheese too. I had never thought of Munster as a particularly special cheese.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01851263316312163195noreply@blogger.com
