    All of us at Epicurious are devastated to hear of the passing of Anne Saxelby, the celebrated American cheesemonger who created this video with us. Anne was a remarkable voice for American cheesemakers in the global community and leaves an enduring impression upon the art, the industry, and us all.

      It's less expensive than you'd think. If you dine out, you probably already spend more than it would cost to experience a cheese and its pairing. And the cheese experience would make a good meal replacement. With the 30 cheeses in the video, you should be able to buy a pound of each of these cheeses and their pairings for under $1,000 total. Spread it out (pun intended) over a year.

      I find it sad that the only cheese you usually eat are cheddar and mozzarella. I'm from the region of france where we eat a great variety (franche-comté ) and it surprised me a lot to think that in some area , people didn't really know cheese exist. Like i litteraly see a chinese guy when i was at university who vomit is cheese because the idea of a solid block of milk was disgusting for him . Another chinese what skeptical at first , but some weeks ago we saw some goat cheese on his fridge and we where happy to see that he actually enjoy cheese .
      i'm also sad that we won't see a part 2 of this video , they are a lot of strange cheese who still exist , like cancoillote who is a sort of liquid cheese who can be used like a sauce , generaly used with potatoes and sausage , who is nearly fat free (around 5-8% , very strange for a cheese ) or casu marzu , who is a cheese from sardinia or southern corsica . it's a cheese with a lot of protein because he contain insect larva in here . i could go on and on with these strange cheese ( i'm french) but i love to find some strange cheese around the world too Winnimere and halloumi make me eager to test them , at least i now know one US cheese who seem very nice !

    People are always like, "Big Tech knows everything about you and always knows what to recommend to you," but I just actually did a double take seeing a cheese cutting video despite never expressing any interest in food preparation to Google through their search or what I watch on UA-cam. Honestly this is fascinating stuff though, I'm very glad I got recommended this out of nowhere.

    Cheese rinds can be cut to bite size pieces and mixed into pasta sauce or soups(long simmer, home made).
    The rind softens to a gummy like texture which breaks up into a creamy rich parmigiana burst of flavour.

      I'll try it thanks. Another pro tip for if you don't want to eat the brie rind with the cheese, is to freeze the brie overnight. Let it thaw. Because of the temperature change and the condensation during the freeze and thaw, the rind peels off in several nice big pieces SO easily!!!!! It doesn't cling to a scrap of cheese, so you have 100% of the two 100%seperated.

    You just solved the conflict that plagued my parents marriage: how to cut the Gouda. Dad said from the top, mom said from the sides and they both bitterly argued about who ruined the form of the cheese block. Now the verdict is out: both. Also my brother found out that Gouda with chocolate sprinkles on top tasted quite well on a slice of bread, which always felt a bit like blasphemy.

    For Gouda, you use the cheese slicer (kaasschaaf) on the top (that would be the middle of the wheel) and not on the sides to get some even slices. You then pair those nice even slices with some brown bread and butter to get a typical Dutch sandwich. You can also dice the Gouda, stick some toothpicks in the cubes, and serve them with whole grain mustard for a typical Dutch snack when you're having some drinks.
