Cheese Classes

NEXT CHEESE CLASS IS.............April 16th at the Hockinson Fire Station. Contact Candy Yarnell to sign up. Cost of class is $15 a person. A light lunch of soup and bread is provided by the Clark County Goat Association. Enjoy the cheese tasting table during the lunch break. A variety of local artisan cheeses as well as commercial cheese for your tasting pleasure.

This is a great way to spend the afternoon talking CHEESE, learning CHEESE techniques, and eating CHEESE. If you're a beginner or advanced cheese maker there is always something to learn from Mary. Questions VERY welcome.

Clark County Goat Association hosts 2 classes a year. One in the spring and the other in the fall. More information will be posted as the information becomes available.

Mary Rosenblum: Cheese Instructor "Extraordinaire"

Weight loss food: cheese

Women who ate an ounce of full-fat cheese (picture a wedge about the size of your thumb) daily gained fewer pounds over time than their less-cheesy peers, a study in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition shows. Whole dairy contains conjugated linoleic acid, which may stoke your metabolism. One low-cal wonder: full-fat ricotta. It weighs in at a scant 49 calories and 4 g fat (2 g saturated) per ounce and has the lowest amount of sodium of any cheese out there. For a decadent-tasting dish, toss ricotta with pasta and fresh herbs or stir it into jarred tomato sauce for a flavor upgrade.
