Isigny Camebert/Triple Creme Cheese - Celebrating Food
11-20-2009
This Friday you will have the pleasure of sampling two delicious French cheeses;Isigny Camembert Cheese and Fromager D’affinois Triple Crème Cheese! When it comes to indulgences, Triple Crème Cheese has no equal. When it's called a triple-crème, it really means, triple the cream. Triple-crèmes scale the heights of indulgence with an unrivaled texture conjured from the age-old alchemy of milk, enzymes, and time: stirring thick cream into the milk curds during production. The resulting cheese is dense, delicious, and luxurious. Isigny Camembert Cheese is creamy yellow, supple, and gives slightly to finger pressure. A real Camembert is a thing to worship; it is a full-flavored gourmet cheese at once garlicky, truffly, mushroomy and lightly salty, with an underlying flavor of nuts and wood. These two spreads will be a great addition to any holiday meal or appetizer so make sure to get your sample between the hours of 3:00pm and 7:00pm this Friday at any participating Big Y.
