Need a goid cheese for macaroni and cheese
She fucking that cheese up 😂
When will you do a video on preserving cheese by waxing them.
I would love to see ski cheese reviewed. It is eating all over the UK and Europe it's a really cooked cheese and is brown all the way through. I would love to learn more and see what people think of the taste!
I had fantina once and it tasted very bitter to me. Why? Anyone? It wasn't cheap.
Fontina or Fon-Tina, sister to Can-Tina. But my question is are they twin sisters? Ha-ha. Funny, no but it's a short play on America's language.

Yes
The Boar's Head is really good for pizza, especially if you have a wood-fired oven to bake in. If you find it hard to get good real mozzarella that isn't full of water that can make your pizzas wet, I go for this. Thankfully, I now have an Italian market that has good low moisture mozzarella–otherwise, this is my go-to.
So what is the defining characteristic of Fontina?
Julia, stop eating! You are past the point of pretending to 'taste'. Find s replacement while you take care of business( I'm not holding my breath, as this is nothing new). Too loud, too 'fake-happy', plus too big equals over the top!
Great segment! And Sartori cheeses are so delish. Their merlot cheese is my all-time fave.
Please eat before these videos. Tired of watching and listening to the chewing and groaning
Love your videos and shows. I’ve been an ATK/CI member for years. Love the App and don’t know what I’d do without your fantastic recipes and reviews of products and equipment.
Ciao, commenting from Valle d’Aosta and trying not to scream at all the copycat versions 😂😂 I’ll just try to be constructive and say that it looks like you guys are comparing an aged fontina to fairly young cop… similar cheese. I prefer young buttery fontina for example and yes it melts like a dream! Enjoy 🌼🐮🌸
💗🧀👍
Wine? Pfft.. amateur pairing.
The "best" fontina cheese is the one you like the most.
This was so helpful! I have been very confused at seeing all the different fontina cheeses at the market. Thanks for clarifying my options.
You never know what Jack will come up with next.
Definitely will try fontina cheese
Love Jack’s segments
If the boars head is $8.50 for 9 ounces, that comes out to approx $15/pound. So the italian brand for $20/lb reallying is not a lot more.
🧀 🧀 🧀 👌🏻😋
