CHEESEMONGERS COMPENDIUM OF BRITISH AND IRISH CHEESE

The perfect companion book to Ned Palmer's acclaimed Cheesemonger's History of the British Isles. Each cheese on Palmer's cheeseboard is accompanied by a morsel of history or a dash of folklore, a description of its flavours, and an enticing illustration. Palmer peppers his book with stories of eccentric and colourful cheesemakers and celebrates both traditional farmhouse and modern artisanal cheeses. He explains how to buy your cheese like a monger, how to cut and store it, and how best to match it with drinks.
