salt

steve cook, maine sea salt co.

milk. microbes. rennet. salt.

we are almost out of the last salt we’ll get from the maine sea salt company. steve cook hauled sea water from the coast near marshfield maine. he died earlier this year, and it seems the business is also gone.

cheese people have opinions about salt. from our start at parish hill, pete insisted that the maine sea salt played an integral role in the flavor of our cheese. if you’ve seen one of his presentations on salt, you heard him wax poetic about the connection between where a cheese developed and the way salt is employed in the make.

we’re still making cheese, so we’ll find salt.
