BONUS EPISODE: Stichelton Cheese with Joe Schneider
Manage episode 481074014 series 3567021
Welcome to this bonus episode of A is for Apple: An Encyclopaedia of Food & Drink.
Last episode had the blue theme, and Neil chose to look at blue cheese, in particular Stichelton, which is made on the beautiful Welbeck Estate in rural Nottinghamshire. Neil spoke to Joe Schneider, who makes this delicious, unique farmhouse cheese. Neil cut the interview down to 6 minutes or so, but here it is in full.
They talk about how one gets into farmhouse cheesemaking, the importance of consistency and the best places to buy Stichelton as well as many other things.
A big thank you to Thomas Ntinas for his sound engineering support.
