Nicola Bailey, a cheesemonger at Eataly in New York City, takes us behind the scenes to demonstrate and explain every tool she uses to prepare and present their famous charcuterie selections. From machetes and industrial meat slicers to mozzarella paddles and harp wires, see everything the pros use day in, day out.
Cheesemaker Rynn Caputo, founder of Caputo Brothers Creamery, demonstrates how to make fresh and aged stretched cheeses in your own kitchen. Stretched (or "pasta filata") cheeses all begin with a curd - heating, stretching, and augmenting it to produce different consistencies, textures, and flavors. If you've ever wanted to try your hand at homemade cheese, Rynn will get you on your way in no time.
In this episode, the kids try 100 years of cheese. Velveeta cheese fudge and peanut butter pickle sandwich dominated the 1920s. The 1930s brought the cream cheese and chopped olive sandwich. Wartime cheese pudding premiered in the '40s. Easy cheese spray (aka cheez whiz) arrived in the '50s. The horseradish cheese ball rolled into the '60s. Fondue debuted in the '70s. Quiche lorraine conquered the '80s. Hot Pockets heated up the '90s. Recently, Raclette cheese and vegan cheese trended.
We sent Elazar Sontag, Restaurant Editor for Bon Appétit, on a mission to find the best Philly Cheesesteak in Philadelphia. The most famous sandwich in Philly, cheesesteaks comprise thinly sliced beef and melted cheese on a long hoagie roll–join Sontag as he eats 19 of the city’s most recommended cheesesteaks in a single day to crown a winner.
