It is an understatement to say that the French love their cheese. Did you know that there are over 1000 types of cheese made in France? More than the different regions of France! Each region has multiple cheeses they are proud of. Fortunately, we can find many of these cheeses in the United States, you just have to know what you are looking for.

You will often see a selection of 3, 5 or 7 cheeses at a fancy French restaurant. If you are serving for 2 couples for a small dinner party, go with 3 cheeses, any more guests and I like to serve 5 cheeses. 7 just seems like too much cheese... if that is a thing? Maybe not.

You absolutely can, but the French don't. A Charcuterie platter is seen as an appetizer, cheese is served at the end of the meal, before dessert. I wrote an entire article about how to make a French Charcuterie Board if you would like more information. Get recipe
