Episode 5
It’s Not Scary, It’s Just Dairy: The Swiss
In this fifth episode, welcome to 'It's Not Scary, It's Just Dairy' - a mini-series where Brittany talks about commonly seen cheeses at the cheese counter that have more eclectic names. Instead of being intimidated by this cheese, Brittany talks about each one and points out how there's nothing to be scared of because most of them are just like other cheeses we already know. And what better way to start this series than with an old favorite, Swiss cheese? With 5 Swiss cheeses that do not have Swiss in the name, this seemed like a no brainer. Meet Challerhocker, Alp Blossom, Emmental, Comte and Gruyere.
There are also a slew of cheese festivals coming up that are discussed and Brittany pays a little tribute to the literal cheese books she used for researching this episode.
