May 15th Class: The Language of Flavor
May 07, 2008
Ever try to describe the flavor of a cheese to someone and all you can think of is "it's really cheesey -- really good and cheesey!" A lot of us can pick out layers of flavor but have a hard time articulating them. If you'd like to improve your skills in this area, join us on Thursday, May 15th for a class on The Language of Flavor with Daphne Zepos of Essex Cheese. Daphne has a terrific palate and will guide us through a discussion of the terms do we use to describe the flavors of cheese. Can a cheese taste like scrambled eggs, potato peel, horseradish, caramel, wet dog? Learn about the many facets of flavor, exercise your palate, and stretch your cheesey lexicon -- all the while tasting lovely cheese and sipping wine, naturally!
