  • Japan isn't famous for its cheese but this cheese maker in Hiruzen (Okayama Prefecture) has been making his own cheese for years. Meet Kawai-san. He started when he couldn't find the cheese he wanted to eat in Japan. His passion took him all over the world, to Europe and the US - and beyond. He also has his own Jersey Milk cows, everything done in the same place. We'll look inside the dairy farm and try some of his best cheese creations.

      Jersey cows are a great choice for a small farm. They are not as large as Holsteins, your usual black and white cow, so not as hard on infrastructure. They are also fairly smart and like a routine.
      Best of all, their milk is way way higher in milk fat than Holstein milk!
      Ya, I grew up on a dairy farm, and the neighbours had Jersey cows 😆

    I am glad to see this. I am a Cheese monger in New Jersey (USA) and when I was a judge of the World Cheese Awards in Wales this past year, I ran into the Japan Cheese team and learned all about Japan Cheese. I was in Japan two weeks ago and I was surprised to see the great Growth of Japanese Cheeses. I can't wait to come back and learn about more Japan made cheeses my next trip! Great Episode!!

    2:38 I think I understand what he's saying, like cheese in the west is used as a creamy/fatty/funky/salty/sharp/etc flavor. But in Japanese cuisine, those flavors are already covered by the wide range of fermented foods. So the introduction of Western cheese to Japan was kind of introducing an unfamiliar yet redundant ingredient.
