Packed with over 700 full-color photographs of more than 350 cheeses, French Cheeses will enable you to identify, buy, and serve cheese with confidence. The entries combine concise descriptions of appearance and flavor with specially commissioned photographs annotated to highlight such characteristics as distinguishing features, texture, and color.

Step-by-step photographs and fascinating facts and anecdotes reveal many of the techniques of cheesemaking. French Cheeses gives helpful advice on buying, storing, and serving cheese, and recommends suitable accompanying wines-it is an invaluable guide for connoisseurs and amateurs alike.
