Christmas Cheese Recipes with Roland Barthélemy
Broadcast live on 07/12/21
The event was hosted by Roland Barthelemy, president of the Guilde International des Fromagers. Roland is recognized as an ambassador of the French cheese patrimony and has brought professionals together to celebrate their cheese companionship and to foster learning and recognition among their peers.
He started in the cheese business at the ripe old age of nine, helping his father select cheeses at the famous Les Halles Paris cheese market. Eventually, he opened his own shop/fromagerie in Paris. Fromagerie Barthélemy was for many years the official supplier of cheese to French presidents in the Elysée palace.
On December 7th, Roland invited us into his kitchen, in the south of France, to take us through his cheese recommendations for Christmas.
With a selection of French traditional cheeses, Roland showcased innovative cooked cheese recipes and present a French classic cheeseboard for the Christmas table.
