Classic Series: A Regional Tour of French cheese, wine, and accompaniments

Embark on a culinary adventure across France as we delve into the rich world of French cheese, wine, and accompaniments. This class is a comprehensive exploration of the iconic cheeses from France’s diverse cheese-making regions, each with its own unique flavors, textures, and traditions. Whether you're a cheese enthusiast or simply curious, this course will guide you through the history, production methods, and tasting profiles of France’s finest cheeses.

Specifically, we'll explore the distinct cheese-producing regions, from Normandy's creamy Camembert to Auvergne’s pungent blue cheeses. From Savoie's Tomme's cheeses to Jura's Comté. We’ll explore how climate, geography, and local traditions influence the flavor of each cheese.

You'll also learn about the different classifications of cheese (fresh, soft, pressed, blue, goat) and their characteristics.

As wonderful as France's cheese is, it would be a shame to focus solely on cheese when France has delectable wine and accompaniments. We'll also share additional items like French inspired saucisson, Raphaël's jams, and French wines, and many others.

Join us on this journey across France! Bon Voyage!
