Publisher: PROFILE BOOKS
Ned Palmer's "A Cheesemonger's Tour de France" was awarded the John Avery Award at the André Simon Awards 2024. In this delightful book, Palmer takes readers on a journey through the regions of France, encountering the remarkable cheesemongers who uphold the country's oldest and most cherished cheese traditions. Each French cheese carries a unique essence, reflecting the place where it is made, its history, identity, and landscape. Sometimes, this essence is tangible, as in the case of Comté, whose hard texture echoes its mountainous home in the Jura region. At other times, it is more nuanced, intertwining with the power and politics of the time. For instance, Brie's popularity soared due to its proximity to the French court, while Camembert gained national status after being supplied in patriotic boxes to First World War soldiers. Palmer's writing is witty, fascinating, and endlessly moreish, making "A Cheesemonger's Tour de France" the perfect guide to a French cheeseboard and a delightful insight into la Belle République.
