Heinzelcheesetalk #84: Englische Käse! Freitag, 3. Dezember 2021. In der Markthalle Neun.

Es war Cheese (und wunderbar war sie), und es ist Corona-Streß-Zeit (wieder mal) – und trotzdem Heinzelcheesetalk. Wenn Ihr Lust habt, natürlich. Genesen oder geimpft, soviel Maske wie möglich – und trotzdem Zusammensein, Lachen, Verkosten, Weintrinken. Ich komme gerade von vier Tagen in London zurück. Was sich zuerst sehr merkwürdig und ungewohnt anfühlte, dann aber so schön war… all die Freunde wiederzusehen! Das heißt: ich hab Käse für Euch mitgebracht, was ja jetzt unter Brexit-Bedingungen nochmal spannender ist. » Weiterlesen…

The cheese of the month for April 2021 is: Westcombe Cheddar from Somerset/UK

And suddenly it’s the Easter weekend, and April again, and again – still! – sooo much uncertainty ahead of us. Which is why we need at least a sturdy cheese, one that provides that friendly nudge, tells you to keep swimming and smiling, slaps his arm around your sagging shoulders, and gives you a push, like a fresh gust of April tailwind on your morning run.

Cheese of the month December 2017: St Jude from Julie Cheyney, White Wood Dairy/NE Suffolk, UK

„I’d like to make that milk sing in the cheese.“ Julie Cheyney is no romanticising back-to-the-land hippie (and nothing against those!), but a solid, experienced specialist (she was married to a Hampshire farmer for almost 30 years). Since five years she is above all busy with cheese making and for that purpose even moved with her White Wood Dairy from Hampshire to Bungay in the northeast of Suffolk, in search of really good, singing milk. » Weiterlesen…
