GIRL TALK
-- Today we Celebrate with Cheese! ---
Hundreds of cheeses have been created throughout the world -
France alone is said to have introduced about 400 different
varieties.. but there are actually fewer than 20 "distinct" types.
There are very hard, ripened seasoning cheeses; firm ripened cheeses
such as "American" cheese, Provolone, and Swiss, and unripened cheeses.
These are used in cooking as with Mozzarella, Italian Ricotta, and cottage
cheese.
When cooking cheese, abide by this one rule: Cook over low heat, as
high heat or overcooking makes cheese tough, stringy, or leathery and
may cause mixtures of cheese, egg, and milk to curdle.
