The Cheese Family

In partnership with Peter’s Yard petersyard.com - When one looks at the world of artisan cheesemaking, it’s noticeable that many of the businesses are family ones. We talk to cheesemakers around the world about the pleasures – and pressures – of working in a family business, Jonny Crickmore, of Fen Farm Dairy in Suffolk, Britain, Sarah Hennessy of Durrus Farmhouse Cheese in West Cork, Ireland, Chickie and Gaby Vella of Vella Cheese Company in Sonoma, California, USA and Mark Lee of Torpenhow Cheese Company in Cumbria, Britain all share their stories. With their delightfully crunchy texture, Peter’s Yard sourdough crackers go very well with cheese. The crackers come in a lovely range of flavours, so you can have fun experimenting with matching them to different cheeses.The pink peppercorn sourdough crackers – which have a fragrant pepperiness to them – go very well with white, bloomy cheeses such as Camembert or Baron’s Bigod, a British Brie made by Fen Farm Dairy in Suffolk.
