There are over 400 different types of cheese produced in France, each with its own unique taste and texture.
From soft to hard, from moldy to crusty – as chef Yulia Arkhipova , an expert at the online publication BelNovosti, told us, they are the perfect complement to baguettes, wine and more.
Today we invite you to get acquainted with one of the most famous French cheeses – Camembert. We are ready to give advice on how to combine it with other products.
Camembert was named after a French village.
This type of cheese is made from cow's or goat's milk. Camembert is usually small and round.
The cheese has a white moldy rind on top and a creamy texture on the inside.
The distinctive feature of the cheese is its characteristic sweet-nutty mushroom flavor.
Here are some amazingly delicious combinations.
- Baguette: Crusty bread is ideal for enjoying the soft flavour of Camembert.
- Nuts: Walnuts, almonds or pistachios add a nice crunch and texture contrast.
- Melon: The juicy, sweet flesh of melon pairs beautifully with the mild flavor of cheese.
- Pears: Sweet and soft, pears are another great complement to Camembert.
- Baked Camembert: The cheese can be baked with, for example, grapes or apples, for a richer flavour.
- Traditional Wines: Camembert pairs well with traditional wines such as Chardonnay, Riesling or Pinot Noir.
