Comment on Hook’s Cheese by Emily Hill

Hook’s blue cheeses are the most incredible blues I’ve ever tasted. Creamy, smooth, perfectly salted but not grainy. Amazing. Since leaving Wisconsin I’ve gone to ridiculous lengths to get a hold of their goods. I even tried posting on craigslist to see if anyone was driving from Wisconsin to Portland. Oh Hooks, I love you so much…

Tony and Julie’s Cheese rock…

If you are into the pungent cultured cheeses the Tilston is bloody amazing….

The variety of cheese is awesome, whatever your taste profile is they rock… (did I tell you that I am glad they are neighbors)

The world according to Cheffy….

Comment on Hook’s Cheese by Gorgonzola Galore | Cuisine Capers

Gorgonzola Galore | Cuisine Capers — Mon, 15 Oct 2007 18:03:51 +0000

[...] Gorgonzola has rapidly become one of our favorite cheeses. We cook with it, we eat it after dinner as a cheese course with wine or port, and we always have it on hand. Much of the reason for this is because we are fortunate enough to live close to one of the top Gorgonzola producers, Hook’s Cheese, in Mineral Point, WI. Read more about them here! [...]

I just got one of these things myself. Unfortunately, although the spot I selected appeared to be flat, it’s not. The darned thing is off balance and I’m stumped as to how to fix this 80 lb thing now! Oh well. I’ll figure something and yes - the tomatoes will be grand!

Thanks for your comment! I’ll take pictures along the way and post them.

Actually I read that growing this way foils pests and increases yield, but so far I have resisited temptation (every time I try to grow tomatoes the squirrels beat me to the punch!) Let us know how it goes!
