That’s a question I get asked a lot. And one I simply cannot answer. There’s just too many variables: What season is it? What am I craving? Will I be pairing this cheese with a drink or a snack? Am I cooking with it? What mood am I in?

I always find myself answering the question with … more questions. And inevitably, I end up rambling about why knowing the source of your food—learning about the maker, understanding the tasting notes, and arming yourself with just a tad more information—is critical to expanding your palate and truly enjoying your food.

Most people like, if not LOVE, cheese. And cheese is one of the most complex and satisfying snacks. It can be paired with pretty much anything. The key to pairing cheese successfully is finding the unique gems in a vast food marketplace.

And I’m here to guide you. I have nearly a decade of experience in the specialty food industry as the editor and creative director of a national cheese magazine, and I’ve developed a knack for finding and curating the best cheese and accompaniments.
