Fromage De Paulette
$17.00
The Craft: Fromage De Paulette is a French cheese named in memory of Paulette Fink, a French Jewish nurse for the Red Cross and a fighter in the French Resistance during WWII. She saved 1,500 Jewish orphans from the Nazis during the war. After the war, working for the Jewish Brigade, she smuggled refugees into Palestine and established 11 orphanages for abandoned children who had survived the Holocaust. This wonderful cheese is a semi-soft, washed rind cheese in the style of raclette or Port Salut and is made with Normandy milk. It's orange rind has a pungent smell, while the interior has a soft velvety and creamy texture and a mild, savory and slightly sweet taste. It can be used as a melting cheese over potatoes and pickles similar to raclette.
