Honored to represent our community of Cheesemongers as a judge alongside @mvoltaggio on The Food Network’s Alex vs. America for the episode on ?CHEESE! The first of 6 showings is tomorrow, 8/14 at 6pm pst. I’ve been watching The Food Network since it started in the early 90’s with @emeril when he was a one-man-show in Essence of Emeril (anyone else remember him yelling “yeah yeah” to his production crew ?). I had such a great time filming and I truly hope I represented our industry of Cheesemongers well!Talking about cheese and eating cheese is my most favorite thing in the world. I’m so nervous…but I hope they included my embarrassing reference to the movie Face Off ? and when I gestured the “chef’s kiss” with my hands to my lips . Tune in!
Cornish Yarg is as fun to eat as it is to say! This cheese is one of our faves from @nealsyarddairy – made in Cornwall and wrapped in nettles, Yarg is fluffy and crumbly in texture, with a yogurty tang that is perfectly refreshing in this summer heat! — 08/13/2022 #milkfarmlunch 1) HBB: French ham, fromage de meaux, cracked black pepper, & herbed butter on baguette 2) PROSCIUTTO ITALIANO: fresh basil, EVOO, sundried tomatoes, Fontina Val d’Aosta, greens, & balsamic on baguette 3) THE CLAUDINE: Genoa salami, herbed butter, fresh cucumber, cracked black pepper, & Gruyere on baguette 4) MUFFALETTA: garlic aioli, Salami Rosa, fresh herbs, Louisiana chopped olive salad, fresh mozzarella, greens, & EVOO on focaccia 5) MILKFARM GRILLED CHEESE 6)

We’ve had plenty of goat milk cheeses from @fireflycheese in Accident, Maryland, but did you know that they make cow’s milk cheeses too?

She’s salty, she’s sweet, she’s full of gooey cheese. She’s a fan favorite. She’s a beauty and a delight. She’s SPECK-TACULAR! (Are we talking about Kelly or about the sandwich? Why not both? ?) — 08/11/2022 #milkfarmlunch 1) SPECKTACULAR: fig jam, fromage de meaux, & greens on baguette 2) HBB: French ham, fromage de meaux, cracked black pepper, & herbed butter on baguette 3) MILKFARM GRILLED CHEESE 4)

You’ve heard of Parmigiano Reggiano, but have you heard of Butter of Parma? Yes, this butter is made only with cream from the milk collected from Modena, Parma, & Reggio Emilia (which are some of the only places in the world that Parmigiano Reggiano can be made!). The milk is strictly selected to make a fragrant, delicate, delicious unsalted butter! ?? — 08/10/2022 #milkfarmlunch 1) HBB: French ham, fromage de meaux, cracked black pepper, & herbed butter on baguette 2) PROSCIUTTO ITALIANO: fresh basil, EVOO, greens, sundried tomatoes, Fontina Val d’Aosta, & balsamic on baguette 3) MILKFARM GRILLED CHEESE 4)
