I sure love cheese. It is a food derived from milk and is produced in many flavors and textures.
What's your favorite type of cheese?
The textures and flavor depend on the origin of the milk and the butterfat content. I personally like gouda the most.
What gives cheese it's yellow color?
The yellow and sometimes red color of many cheeses is produced by adding annatto. It is a spice.
What is the best way to store cheese?
Depending on whether the cheese is acidified, it should be refrigerated. There are several shelf-stable cheeses however. Bacteria and milk sugars can cause mold to form.
Is cheese healthy to eat?
Yes in fact many people think it is health to eat mold found on cheese rinds, the outer layer, or throughout. They think it has essential vitamins and nutrients.
Eww, mold is nasty. No thanks.
