This week is Cutting the Curd's 100th episode! Congratulations to Anne Saxelby, Sophie Slesinger, and everyone else who has either been a guest or supported Cutting the Curd thus far! For this very special episode, Brian Keyser, Dimitri Saad, and Leigh Friend of Casellula Cheese & Wine Café are in the studio for a seven-course cheese tasting! More specifically, Anne and Sophie are taking a lesson in cheese pairing from everyone at Casellula. Hear about some of the cheese condiments at Casellula, as well as how to do your own cheese pairing with food from your pantry. Learn some general basics in terms of complimentary and contrasting tastes and textures. Sit down with a plate of cheese and some of your favorite snacks to pair, and listen to the 100th episode of Cutting the Curd! This episode was sponsored by Hearst Ranch.

"There are no rules to pairing- that's something I like to make clear. Whatever you like to eat together is what goes well together... But two rules of thumb are that you either want to compliment or contrast." -- Brian Keyser on Cutting the Curd

"I believe that it's easier for us sometimes to go for something that's going to compliment, but the fun part about what we do at Casellula is that we taste everything. So sometimes you're going to get that experience from something that is completely unexpected." -- Leigh Friend on Cutting the Curd

Matt Lewis and Renato Poliafito, the fabulous baker boys of BAKED, stop by the studio to sate THE FOOD SEEN’s sweet teeth, bearing their best brownies (which are some of Oprah’s Favorite Things)! They tell the tale that you can positively have one’s cake and eat it too, leaving former lives in the ad world to working nights in cafes and take pastry classes, starting from scratch with the notion to get grandma out of the kitchen, and bring the cool back into baking. Matt and Renato have also authored two toothsome cookbooks that are must haves for anyone craving classic American desserts made alive and anew (Baked: New Frontiers in Baking and Baked Explorations: Classic American Desserts Reinvented).

Join Severine for another episode of Greenhorn Radio; chronicling the life and times of the young farmers in our country. This week she sits down with Kristin Kimball of Essex Farm. Kristin is also an author, her latest book being "This Dirty Life" - which is, as she puts it "the story of the two love affairs that interrupted the trajectory of my life: one with farming—that dirty, concupiscent art—and the other with a complicated and exasperating farmer." This episode was brought to you by Hearst Ranch.
