I absolutely love this book! We are. A huge cheese family, and this book has so many great ideas for pairing. I love the different categories from crackers to fruit to jam, about what pairs best with each type of cheese. There is so much variety, there will be no chance of boredom with your cheese!

I love cheese, and I love this cookbook! This would make an excellent gift for any cheese lover.
The book starts by sharing insight into the different kinds of cheeses. It then provides cheese pairing ideas with several food groups (wine is a food group, right?) that I would have never thought of. It takes you on a journey to different regions and seasons. The recipes are unique yet approachable. It's packed with information but not overwhelming. I'm excited to give some of these recipes a try.
I received an advanced copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

This is an extremely useful and interesting book for cheese lovers everywhere (except perhaps in normal USA families without access to any real cheese! It starts with explaining the basics of cheese types - hard, soft and so on - then explores how we perceive cheese. The bulk of the book explores cheese pairing with charcuterie, fruit, vegetables, nuts, bakery and crackers, pickles, chocolate (yes, chocolate (my favourite Camembert and hazelnut dark chocolate)), honey, jams etc... Each has a single overview page followed by some recipes and all beautifully illustrated. Wine/beer, coffee/tea, cocktail pairings are included and then there are sections for French, Spanish, Italian, American (slim) and British cheese ideas. All of them sound fun, easy to do and look stunning. My only negative thought is the availability of a lot of these cheeses other than via the internet in my case. Whilst British supermarkets have a reasonable range of cheeses, many of these will need a specialist cheese shop/internet. Other Europeans might do better with their local cheeses being more easily accessible but I'm afraid that Americans can, largely, simply drool and wish. I daren't show this book to my daughter who now lives in the USA! Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for an advance copy.

Thank you to NetGalley for providing me with an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
The Complete Cheese Pairing Cookbook is a great guide for cheese pairings along with recipes. The book describes the different cheese and their flavor components. I can't wait to implement these into my charcuterie board nights.
The photos in the book are great in creating a more comprehensive guide and are absolutely beautiful.

I adore cheese and I adore any book about cheese so I was in my glory reading this book. It has such great information adn ideas about serving cheese for an occasion and with this book you can't go wrong. Love the charts and recipes, love the information about the cheeses and how to pair them so that you can enhance the flavours.
This is a book for any cheese lover and would also make a great coffee table book as anyone who comes to your house would not be able to resist opening it up and having a look. I am already making a list of what recipe and ideas to use and what cheeses I need to buy. YUM!
Thank you NetGalley and Quarto Publishing Group – White Lion for giving me the opportunity to read and review this book.

The ONLY guide you will ever need to pair cheese with...anything! Brief in length, but comprehensive in coverage, this tiny compendium is full of beautiful photos, mouthwatering recipes and helpful tips.
So much love for this delicious book!

This is a fantastic resource for anyone who wants to step up their charcuterie game! Being able to understand the different types of cheese and the flavors that they pair best with is a great resource. This book is very easy to read and has both parings and recipes that will help you impress your next dinner guests! I also loved the beautiful pictures included throughout the book.
5/5

A great guide for cheese pairing. I don't exactly have a lot of experiance with how to pair cheese, but this book fantastic for beginners.

This was a fun book all about cheese, which I love. It has a lot of great recipes and ideas for pairing cheese with other foods/drinks. Highly recommend for those who love cheese.

What a stunning book. I’m a great cheese lover; I’d chose cheese over chocolate or cake any day. It’s rather that a book evokes a genuine physical sense of pleasure, but I feel totally vindicated. I’ve always eaten cheese with other things and considered it ‘normal’. For some 69 years, I’ve always had a slice of cheese with fruit cake, or crumpets and honey with a strong blue cheese, or sliced apple, pears and grapes served with a cheese board. It’s seemed natural and going through this book, I recognise so many of the pairings!
I’ve found the British approach to cheese very boring. A desultory selection of crackers with cheese on a small board is not appetising. Things have improved in recent years, but there’s a long way to go and a book like this will encourage many to explore the wonders of taste, texture and contrast. I’ve really enjoyed all the explanations; it helps to have an understanding of why some things work so well together. Every page is appetising with colour plates showing examples of pairings. It’s mouthwatering and works very well on a tablet. That said, I’ll be buying the hard copy on publication. This is a brilliant addition to my cookery book collection. Informed, intelligent and a true delight. Thank you Morgan for compiling such an erudite exploration of this fascinating area of food.

I love cheese, but toppings can’t always be eaten by themselves. This cookbook is a good way to find ideas on what to pair your cheese with. The combinations are endless. There are also fun recipes in here too. I would recommend this cookbook to any cheese lover in the world or anyone who likes cooking or is a foodie.
