If the denizens of the internet know anything about me, it's that I love cats, sloths, baking goodies, and CHEESE.
Therefore, I read this new Wisconsin Cheese Cookbook in a constant state of giddy delight. This encyclopedic text breaks Wisconsin into regions and talks cheese on an intimate level with the families who run the creameries and who live, breathe, and bleed cheese. Not only does the cookbook come across as a work of love, but love for cheese production and place come across loud and clear, too. The recipes in the book are from families sharing their own personal favorites, and wow, do the recipes look and sound good. There's a wide variety of kitchen inspiration to be found here, from multiple ways to prepare and enjoy cheese curds (of course!) to biscuits and scones to main dishes like pizza to lush desserts like goat cheese brownies. You could do multiple cheese-based three-course meals out of this book. I think the one fault I found (and mind you, I was reading an early galley in ebook form, so this criticism may be obsolete in regards to the print version) is that I wanted more and larger pictures of the recipes. To me, that was more important than the photographs of cows (though they were nice, too).
I loved how the book emphasized terroir, that flavor of a food that can only be found in a particular place. Every page celebrated Wisconsin and the terroir of its cheese. Not only does the back of the book contain a nice index, it also has a series of appendixes that describe the awards won by each dairy (there are a LOT), annual cheese events throughout the state (I want to goooooo), and cheese retailers and creameries. Therefore, this book breaks down the full life cycle of Wisconsin cheese: how and why it achieves its unique flavors, who makes it, where to try it and buy it, and how to eat it.
I can easily see this cookbook as a nostalgic read for a cheese-lover from Wisconsin. For me, as a passionate cheese-eater who has never even been to the state, the book was a kind of torment. It truly made me want to go there and Eat All the Cheese, right from the source. The Wisconsin tourism board really should utilize this cookbook in that way. I'm off in Arizona and many of the cheeses mentioned aren't available to me (woe!) but I have had several in the past and even have a few big blocks of Sartori varieties in my fridge right now, thanks to my local Costco. Because of this cookbook, I now have more ideas of what to do with that cheese... though I gotta say, I'm pretty happy eating it straight and in salads as I have been, too.
I highly recommend this cookbook to all cheeseheads and passionate cheese lovers.… (más)
