Edible Radio's Kate Manchester talks to Gordon Edgar, whose book
"Cheesemonger: A Life on the Wedge," has just been published. Edgar,
whose tag line is "punk rock made me a cheesemonger," lucks his way
into a cheese buyer position at Rainbow Grocery in San Francisco and
slowly transforms a once-pedestrian assortment into a world-class
fromagerie. More travelogue than cheese review, Cheesemonger is the
story of Gordon's trips to regional dairies for an intimate look at
the artisan cheese movement. At one farm he’s excited to see cows
eating their way through spring grasses, and bemoans the fact that
seasonal cheeses are a dying breed, a victim of large-scale production
and international free trade.
