Cheese of the month featured at Potsdam Food Co-op food sampling March 12

Posted

POTSDAM -- The Potsdam Food Co-op, 24 Elm St., will host a food sampling event on Thursday, March 12, from 3:30 to 5:30 p.m. featuring the March "Cheese of the Month," cambozola, also known as Blue Brie.

During the sampling, the spotlight will shine on Cambozola, a cheese made in the Bavarian region of Germany. It is a hybrid of a French soft-ripened triple cream Brie/Camembert and an Italian Gorgonzola.

The Brie/Camembert is injected with the same mold used in Gorgonzola, Roquefort, and Stilton cheeses but is neither pungent nor crumbly.

It is a cross between a creamy, moist, and rich Brie/Camembert and a sharp Gorgonzola.

The Co-op is open daily from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. Info: 265-4630.
