It&#8217;s a PBS documentary about a Benedictine nun,\u00c2\u00a0Sister Noella Marcellino, who goes in search of a deeper understanding of just what is happening to cheeses as they go through the ripening process. She ends up returning to college to conduct scientific research into the microbiology of cheese fermentation. She continues on in her studies to the cheese caves of France and the artisanal cheesemakers there who have been practicing their craft for hundreds of years.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.fucheese.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/cheesenundvd.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-337\" title=\"Cheese Nun DVD\" src=\"http:\/\/www.fucheese.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/cheesenundvd-201x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"201\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.fucheese.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/cheesenundvd-201x300.jpg 201w, http:\/\/www.fucheese.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/cheesenundvd.jpg 336w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 201px) 100vw, 201px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The nuns of her Abbey are absolutely charming, working their land, milking their cows and making cheeses. The science behind the cheese fermentation process was fascinating and not something which I think I had even slightly grasped before. And the visuals of the cheesemaking process were really informative. If you&#8217;re at all interested in the history of cheesemaking and seeing how it&#8217;s done (in a variety of ways) then totally check out this DVD.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The last time I was at my local library (give it up for the Multnomah County system, what what!)
