Itineraire des Saveurs Camembert de Normandie au lait cru

Camembert de Normandie is a raw cow's milk cheese with a soft paste and a bloomy rind, produced in several municipalities of the Calvados, Eure, Manche, and Orne departments in the Normandy region.

It is made from at least 50% milk from Normandy cows that spend more than 6 months of the year grazing in pastures.

The Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) is the European equivalent of the controlled designation of origin, which represents national recognition.

The Protected Designation of Origin implies a close link between the product, the terroir, and human talent. The PDO guarantees the origin of the product and traditional production methods. It gives the cheese its entire character.

To be recognized as a PDO, the cheese must:

• come from a specific and defined production area, using milk from that area
• meet specific production conditions
• have a recognized reputation and excellence
• be subject to an authorization and control procedure

Recommended consumption:

Replace dessert with cheese:
Instead of ending the meal with a piece of cake or a tart, prepare a small cheese platter with nuts and fresh or dried fruit.

Pairings that work:

• Fresh cheese and its texture with oil-rich fruits
• Blue cheese pairs very well with very sweet fruits
• Cheese with a bloomy rind pairs well with apple and pear
• Goat and sheep cheese with summer fruits
