Steve Jenkins' Favorite Gooey Cheeses
November 26, 2005
Listen to this feature (How to listen)
Cheese monger Steve Jenkins has introduced us to many fine cheeses over the years, but we wondered which ones are his absolute favorites, his "cheeses of a lifetime." Here are his picks. All are lush, gooey, soft-rind cheeses.
- Saint-Florentin: A raw cow's milk cheese from Burgundy. The one-pound drums have a washed rind and are creamy and rich.
- Saint-Marcellin: From France's Dauphiné region, north of Provence. The 3-ounce disk of cow's milk cheese is best after a few weeks of ripening when the flavor becomes fruity and nutty.
- Perail: A little disk of sheep's milk cheese that the Roquefort makers make for themselves.
