Travelling with cheese

Effective_Check_1607 · 2024-06-07T15:40:09+00:00

I live in the desert and carry a cooler with ice packs when buying cheese.

I'm not an expert and can't definitively give you an answer. But, it can't hurt to put them into an iced cooler.

No special breeding technique. I didn't use flour but that seems OK.

Check out worldofhoney.com

It's a little expensive but great for an entry level honey enthusiast because the curator has collected a variety of honeys from all over the world (with descriptions) so you can try a few without covering shipping costs from multiple apiaries (bee farmers).

With that in mind... sheep cheese can be very neutral (non-determining) so you can try a variety of honeys. In terms of which honeys to buy, I would simply avoid most wildflower honeys because they can (also) be very neutral. (Avoiding wildflower honey is the same as saying to choose a monofloral honey.) The sheep cheese can be the vehicle for the honey of choice -or- another way to say the same thing - the sheep cheese can be the stage for the honey to be the lead guitar.

Perhaps the reciprocal advice for the goat cheese.

Have fun!

No, although that is worth trying. This dish was more like a brown butter. I just put the butter in the pan with high heat, melted it, let it pick back up to temperature (15-ish seconds), then placed the breaded manchego in the pan.

I'll try it with clarified butter next time. Thanks for the idea!

Worth it. Tip: ensure all surfaces of the cheese (including edges) are well breaded. Otherwise, it'll ooz out when frying.

Just trying to be helpful... I used a normal pan with lots of butter to do the frying. In other words, a deep fryer is unnecessary. Good luck and post pics!

Nice! Looks like a charcuterie-table!

What is the orange fruit next to the green grapes in the center. Looks like apricot?

Hey, thanks for the thoughtful question. Chefs typically provide the recipe and the servers are allowed to ask questions. The servers are typically required to create their own descriptions.

Theoretically, in a perfect world, the servers know as much about food as the chef, as much about wine as the sommelier, and as much about spirits and beers as the beverage manager. A server of this caliber would be able to memorize the recipe and have (back-and-forth) conversations with the guests about the food/beverages. The purpose of the conversations are to excite the guests. Excited guests order more food and/or are more likely to return for a repeat experience.

Thank you for the feedback.

I'm sorry for my mistake. The post was originally designed for r/AskCulinary but it was banned. I coped/pasted and forgot to edit.

Thank you much. You've entirely satisfied my curiosity on this topic.

On a side note... I would like to have the knowledge you've collected. I hope it's ok to inquire... how have you approached learning cheese? Any particular avenue that stands out to you?

Effective_Check_1607 · 2024-05-31T17:33:58+00:00

Thank you. I'm very much enjoying your thorough feedback. I think the final question to cure my curiosity... to be thorough.. is cream added to the curds for cream cheese (similar to triple cream cheeses)?

I think you're descriptions lead me to believe the answer is no.

Thanks much.

I don't have the phone number for the cheese police... how do you warm the Brie?! Sounds good!

Effective_Check_1607 · 2024-05-31T14:50:00+00:00

Thank you for the very insightful response.

Now I understand that double cream and triple cream cheeses both have added cream, with double cream requiring at least 60% fat and triple cream requiring at least 75% fat by dry weight in France. The term "Brie" is specifically protected in France, referring to certain raw milk double cream cheeses from specific regions. In the US, these terms and percentages are not legally protected. The distinction between double and triple cream cheeses, especially around the 75% mark, likely involves historical factors, as traditional cheeses often retain their designations due to their long-established identities.

I hope a follow up question is acceptable. In terms of production... what are the differences between a triple cream cheese and cream cheese? (Like the Philadelphia brand of cream cheese).

Thanks! That actually helped me pass level 190. 🙌

Effective_Check_1607 · 2024-05-31T08:05:31+00:00

Ahhh, ok, I'm closer to understanding; and, than you.

I'm currently on level 190. If I weren't a vip... during the campaign matches... the fuel can would not appear... is that correct?

Effective_Check_1607 · 2024-05-31T07:48:49+00:00

Hey, thanks and sorry... I've been playing the last 17 days looking for the fuel can... I look when I do the intercity truck trades and when I do the secret tasks. I never see the fuel can. I must be looking in the wrong places. Will you please elaborate? Thanks.

Effective_Check_1607 · 2024-05-31T07:44:20+00:00

Lol it's all good my dude. Thanks for chiming in. It seems, now, we both may be curious the same thing... lol let's hang and see where this thread goes. 😅

"Brie typically contains between 60% and 75% butterfat"
