Brain Pickings treasure & bond Poilane Our Approach We are passionate about bread. We are constantly looking for the best ingredients and the best production techniques. Lionel Poilâne called this search and combination of the best of old techniques with the best of new techniques, “Retro-Innovation.” Bread is made of four ingredients: water, flour, salt, a rising agent. We source our sea salt from Guérande. Poilâne has a small range of breads to ensure their quality. > read Poilâne company's history
Sweet Grass Dairy Description Made in the style of a Dutch Gouda, this semi-soft cheese is both dense and smooth. However, unlike most Goudas that are made in Holland, ours is made with milk from Jersey cows. This provides a more buttery, creamy, and mellow flavor than your typical Gouda. Additionally, using Jersey cow's milk helps the sweet, nutty, and rich flavors that dominate the grassy pastures our cows graze in daily shine through. Finally, our Gouda has great balance of protein, fat and salt making it one of the most versatile cheeses we handcraft. How We Make It Georgia Gouda is aged for at least 60 days. Pairing Suggestions Considered a great cheese to pair with beer, our favorites are either an Imperial Stout or a big American Porter. Awards 1st Place 2002 American Cheese Society Competition Size, Packaging, and Shelf Life Georgia Gouda is made in wheels that average 10lbs to 12lbs a piece. How to Serve
