Charcuterie & Cheese 101 |
We are very fortunate to be able to work with a lot of different people throughout the state & from time to time we get to have new adventures and experiences. This week was one of those times. We attended a Charcuterie & Cheese Tasting.
It was hosted by Edible Charlotte magazine, Studio Kitchen Charcuterie & Orrman's Cheese Shop.
It was really great for us because several of the meats used in the charcuterie were from Wild Turkey Farms. It was also a chance to educate ourselves not only in the art of charcuterie but cheese.
There were 6 different tasting pairs. In the picture above they are from left to right.

*****
Everything was delicious!! The Speck was one of my favorites. I also liked the Nduja which was described as a fiery hot, spreadable salame.
As for the cheese, I love Chevre & also really liked the Pawlet.
