Farmhouse Cheddar. Somerset, England

Description

Perhaps the world's most popular cheese, Cheddar cheese is produced in the village it is named for in southwest England. In this episode, Will Studd visits the area's famous gorge and caves before travelling to meet the Keen and Montgomery families, the last two farmhouse producers of cloth-bound raw milk cheddar. He then explores how the original cheese was made, including the all-important cheddaring process, and meets Randolph Hodgson, of the influential London cheese store Neal's Yard Dairy, to investigate how the best farmhouse cheddar is graded.
