From Afrim Pristine, the internationally-renowned maître fromager and
host of Food Network Canada's Cheese: A Love Story, comes a cookbook
and all-encompassing cheese guide featuring everyone's favorite
ingredient.
Afrim Pristine may possess the most distinguished professional title a
cheesemonger could ask for--maître fromager--but if you ask him what
business he's in, he'll tell you he sells happiness. That's because
cheese is inextricably linked to wonderful memories and celebrations for
so many of us. No matter the occasion, cheese and cheesy dishes are
always greeted with a smile.
In his first cookbook, Afrim is here to teach you the basics of more
than 55 cheeses. You'll learn about the best ways to buy and store
cheese, how to pair different cheeses with different beverages and how
to create the cheese board of your dreams. And with his signature sense
of humor and warmth, Afrim offers 60 easy and enticing recipes for every
mealtime, including a bonus chapter called Low Risk, High Reward, for
those moments when you're looking to simply eat cheese with the perfect
accompaniment. Alongside Afrim's best dishes are 20 masterpieces from
the world's top chefs--everyone from Daniel Boulud, Claudio Aprile,
Anthony Walsh, and Rob Gentile to Chuck Hughes, Anna and Michael Olson,
Bob Blumer and more.
With personal anecdotes and helpful information, creative and delicious
recipes, and beautiful photography, For the Love of Cheese is sure to
bring joy to your kitchen and your heart.
