cheese 101
It’s no secret that I love cheese. When our friend suggested we take a cheese class at Murray’s we jumped at the chance. So last week Aaron and I spent a few hours after work learning about different cheese in a class called Cheese 101. I wasn’t quite sure what to expect. I mean, I knew it was going to be good because it’s Murray’s, but you never know what the instructor will be like or whether the selection of cheeses would up your alley.
We were blown away. Our instructor, Taylor Cocalis, was super nice and funny and knew her stuff when it came to cheese. We were given 7 different cheeses, ranging in milk type (animal), age and place of origin. There was also a generous serving of tasty snacks and wine to accompany the tasting. We went through each cheese, learning about who made it and how to talk about it’s characteristics. By the time the class was over, I was stuffed full of amazing cheeses and a little more knowledgeable about each of them. The only thing is, it left me wanting to take another class…
