Sweet and creamy, Camembert holds a special place in the heart of cheese lovers. The iconic cheese originated in the northern French region of Normandy, where it has been made for centuries. Today, France makes 360 million wheels of Camembert each year. We visited Le 5 Frères, a family-run farm in the village of Bermonville that makes Camembert following the traditional recipe using raw milk and ladles it into molds by hand.

@

@johnransom11462 years ago I’ve made Camembert for a few years in Canada using raw milk from the Amish. Jersey cows so more fat. Grass pasture, hay in winter, all organic. Imported the cultures from France. I sold some French angora rabbits to recent French immigrants in Montreal. Sent them a wheel of it. They aged it and said it was the best they’d had. Certainly better than store bought. It’s getting good milk that is so important. Quebec allows raw milk cheeses here in Canada and I believe Saskatchewan now as well. ... 2
