[Sca-cooks] Cheese Poll

[Suey]

Joshua McCoy:

>> Hi every one.  I am taking a poll. . . 
Without consulting anyone and taking the question as is with no further 
thought my three favorite cheeses are in this order:
    Torta de Caceres, ewes cheese from the province of Caceres in 
Extremadura made only in the spring when the ewes eat chard. Its hard to 
find even in Spain except at the cheese fair in Trujillo in the spring.
    Brie from that French province.
    Cabrales from Asturias Spain. It is a mixture of cow, goat and ewe's 
milk. Asturians claim the French copied Cabrales and called it Rocafort. 
The French maintain that their pilgrims on the way to St. James took 
Rocafort and taught Asturians to make it. Either way I prefer Cabrales 
to Rocafort.
