Helen Howarth
“The New American Cheese”
There were over 1200 North American artisan cheese entries at the American Cheese Society competition this year. Succulent triple crèmes, tangy blues, marvelous aged cheddars, and delectable stinky cheese. The United States has developed its own robust artisan cheese movement and the new American Cheese is a far cry from Velveeta. Helen presents an overview of her American favorites.
