American Cheese: An Indulgent Odyssey Through the Artisan Cheese World

by Joe Berkowitz Author

When people think of American cheese, they tend to picture those swatches of orange plastic laced with aluminum and drooped over a hamburger or an Egg McMuffin. They don't think of all the other kinds of American cheese out there. Author Joe Berkowitz didn't. But one Valentine's Day, Berkowitz stumbled upon an artisan cheese shop and found a whole new world of flavor. This book aims to share that world with the reader, as Berkowitz brings you along on his journeys to restaurants, cheese caves, farms, factories, and more on a mission to cultivate a deeper appreciation for all the myriad forms that this delicious dairy product takes. For cheese lovers everywhere, this book provides a fascinating look at the otherwise hidden world of cheese making. A must read for foodies of all stripes.
