How to Make the Ultimate Cheese Platter, using 6 iconic French cheeses and many delicious World alternative cheeses. Live Tasting / Smelling session included !
To put together the best cheese plate, you must have diversity in milk types (cow, sheep, goat) also in texture : soft, creamy, crumbly, firm and of course in strength too, mild and gentle to naughty and deliciously stinky.
COMTE CHEESE
--------------------------
strength : 2 out of 5
Its a pressed and cooked cheese made from Cows’milk
Produced in eastern France / moutains of the jura
Alternatives :
- Swiss Gruyère

- Tarentaise cheese from Spring Brook Farm in Vermont
ROQUEFORT CHEESE (don’t spell the T)
----------------------------------
strength : 5 out of 5
It’s an unpressed and uncooked cheese made from SHEEP's milk,
Comes from the SOUTH of France, more accurately from the AVEYRON region.

- ITALIAN Gorgonzola
- British Blue STILTON
- Danish blue cheese
- or even the blue Maytag.
OSSAU - IRATY
-------------------------
strength : 3 out of 5
Its a pressed and uncooked cheese made from Sheep’s milk
Coming from south-west France, in the pyrenees mountains.
ALTERNATIVES
Here are a few international alternatives to OSSAU IRATY cheese :

- Young Italian Pecorino as well
- From the us Gran Queso, in wiconsin.
MOTHAIS GOAT CHEESE
----------------------------------------
strength : 3 out of 5
SOFT-RIPENED cheese made with Goat’s milk, wrapped in a chestnut leaf,
Coming from western France, a region called POITOU

Any creamy goat cheese would work, so :

- or in California : Humboldt FOG from CYPRESS grove,
EPOISSES CHEESE

strength : 4 out of 5
Washed-rind Cheese made from cow’s milk, coming from Burgundy, in the center of France.
ALTERNATIVES
so Here are a few international alternatives to EPOISSES cheese :

CHAOURCE CHEESE
--------------------------------
strength : 3 out of 5
Soft-ripened cheese made from cow’s milk.
Coming northern east France, the CHampagne ardennes region.
Even if it has its own personality, in many aspects, it is similar to BRIE cheese, and that’s why I chose it.
ALTERNATIVES
As BRIE cheese is produced all over the world, it is the perfect alternative to CHAOURCE CHEESE. Example :
- Brie from King island dairy in Australia
- Cornish Brie from the UK
- or really, any Brie cheese in the US.

About the Site 🌐
This site provides links to random videos hosted at YouTube, with the emphasis on random. 🎥
Origins of the Idea 🌱
The original idea for this site stemmed from the need to benchmark the popularity of a video against the general population of YouTube videos. 🧠
Challenges Faced 🤔
Obtaining a large sample of videos was crucial for accurate ranking, but YouTube lacks a direct method to gather random video IDs.
Even searching for random strings on YouTube doesn't yield truly random results, complicating the process further. 🔍
Creating Truly Random Links 🛠️
The YouTube API offers additional functions enabling the discovery of more random videos. Through inventive techniques and a touch of space-time manipulation, we've achieved a process yielding nearly 100% random links to YouTube videos.
About YouTube 📺
YouTube, an American video-sharing website based in San Bruno, California, offers a diverse range of user-generated and corporate media content. 🌟
Content and Users 🎵
Users can upload, view, rate, share, and comment on videos, with content spanning video clips, music videos, live streams, and more.
While most content is uploaded by individuals, media corporations like CBS and the BBC also contribute. Unregistered users can watch videos, while registered users enjoy additional privileges such as uploading unlimited videos and adding comments.
