Following the enormous success of her first book The Cheese Room, Patricia Michelson now unlocks the door of her Marylebone Village store, La Fromagerie, to share her knowledge and explore the world of artisan cheese. She derives ongoing inspiration and fantastic produce from the many small independent cheese producers around the globe who supply her. For Patricia, these cheese producers are unsung heroes a source of great delight and a fount of knowledge.This book charts her cheese journey, explaining how one food source has inspired and supported a shop, a cafe and an international network of small producers, from the Savoie in France, home to raclette comtoise, via the British Devon countryside and Colston Bassett Stilton to the Lombardy hills of Italy and its celebrated taleggio valsassia. By taking the reader on a journey, both geographical and inspirational, Patricia shares her own sense of discovery in her fascinating stories about the wondrous artisan cheeses from around the world. Patricia's traveller's tales are followed by explanations of the personalities of her many favourite cheeses as well as accompanying recipes.Patricia's enthusiasm for cheese and incredible knowledge are universally admired and hugely infectious qualities that create a book of distinction and quality. Patricia Michelson started La Fromagerie in 1991 from her garden shed with just one cheese. This led to a hugely enjoyable journey in which she has explored and learnt about the tastes and styles of hundreds of cheeses worldwide. La Fromagerie was voted Best Specialist Food Shop 2005 by Observer Food Monthly magazine, and her second shop in Marylebone has a cafe within the shop where cheese and wine feature heavily. Patricia supplies many top restaurants and other shops wishing to have artisan farmhouse cheeses, and her advice is often sought for information about cheese and wine pairings by prestigious food and wine publications and wine companies.| By: | Patricia Michelson (Author), Jamie Oliver (Foreword by) |
