CHEESE OF THE MONTH Tarago River Cheese – Triple Cream
The Tarago River Cheese Company started in 1982 and was one of the first on-farm cheese factories . Tarago River Triple Cream is a farmhouse cheese made in Neerim South , in the beautiful region of Gippsland in Victoria . Although Triple Cream cheeses have a white bloomy exterior , they are quite different to Brie and are their own class of cheese . Additional cream is added during the cheese making process and this presents itself as a chalky core in young cheeses and develops into a rich buttery texture when the cheese matures . When ripe , this cheese has a rich and buttery texture with a clean yet intense creamy and earthy flavour and would be perfectly paired with fruit accompaniments and wine of course !
VITAMIN C IS KEY !
Vitamin C is an essential nutrient with three key functions which act to protect the body from disease .
• The antioxidant properties of Vitamin C help to neutralise free radicals molecules that cause oxidative damage to body cells . Left untapped these free radicals can lead to premature aging and cancer . The antioxidants are also vital to protect against a build-up of arterial plaque to ensure a healthy flow of blood to the heart and protect against heart disease .
• Our skin and connective tissue is made from collagen and the production of collagen is heavily reliant on adequate supplies of vitamin C . Without vitamin C , the body can ’ t heal . The inability of wounds to heal is one of the first clues to scurvy and vitamin C deficiency . Other symptoms include bleeding gums , bruising , loose teeth , and loss of skin elasticity .
• A good reason to load up on lemons during winter is because vitamin C really does help protect against colds and flus . Vitamin C strengthens the immune system by boosting our white blood cell count , cells which are necessary to detect disease and destroy toxins .
How much Vitamin C do we need ? Although the recommended daily intake of vitamin C ( 45mg ) is relatively low , most nutritionists agree that we can all benefit from more . Stress , smoking and excess alcohol will also deplete the body of vitamin C therefore if you do drink and / or smoke and / or suffer from stress the best advice is to significantly increase your intake .
The golden rule is : Fresh and minimally cooked is best .
TIP : A great way to boost the vitamin C content on cooked veggies , and make them taste better , is to sprinkle some lemon or lime juice over the top before serving .
