What is a cheese curd? Until about a year ago, I would not have been able to
answer that question. Today, I can tell you that these little nuggets of
goodness are a benefit of living just a few miles from Wisconsin. As I've
learned, the key to identifying an authentic curd is the sound it makes as you
chew...yes, there is a sound - a distinct squeaking. It's true. So if it don't
squeak, it ain't a real curd.
These came from Decatur Dairy, just outside of Brodhead, Wisconsin. Not only
are the curds pretty awesome, so is their Muenster cheese. In fact, the
Muenster's so good, it is World Championship quality. Check it out next time
you're near Brodhead.
Curd is the word...accept no substitutes.
