in,
lWow!i was all I could say as
my husband served himself a piece
of Chicago-style pizza in Chicago
recently.
The string of cheese stretched
from the platter to over his head
until he used the serving utensil to
trim it. His arm could not stretch
any higher.
Our family finally had returned
to Chicago. About 10 years ago,
our family of five drove the 600
miles from Fargo to Chicago and
tasted the cityis namesake pizza
for the first time. Our kids were
ages 2, 7 and 10 at the time. Even
though we had to wait 45 minutes
for the pizza to cook, they were
willing to be patient.
As they reminisced about trips
through the years, our youngest
child complained that we took all
the ifun trips~ when she was a tod-
dler. She couldnff remember the
amazing pizza. Now 12 years old,
she was excited to taste it and
make her own memory.
I remember my kids initially
thought the pizza had a iweirdi ap-
pearance. The sauce is placed on
top of the cheese inside a deep-
dish crust. After tasting the combi-
nation of fresh mozzarella, hearty
sauce and delicious crust, they
were sold on it.
As we drove to Chicago re-
cently, we saw many dairy cows in
Wisconsin. The cows produced
about 29 billion pounds of milk in
2015. Some of the milk is used to
make 3 billion pounds of cheese.
Therefore, cheese shops beckoned
us off the interstate.
Fresh, squeaky cheese curds are
quite tasty, especially if they are
flavored with dill and garlic, in my
opinion, anyway.
Worldwide, about 2,000 types
of cheese are made. About 300 dif-
ferent types of cheese are available
in the U.S., according to the Na-
tional Dairy Council. Dairy pro-
ducers are located throughout the
U.S., so get to know a dairy farmer
near you to learn more.
Making cheese is a way to pre-
serve milk. According to legend,
cheese was made accidentally
when a traveler placed milk in a
bladder made of an animalfs stom-
ach as a kind of makeshift canteen.
I remember my
kids initially thought
the pizza had a
iweirdf appearance,
The sauce is placed
on top of the cheese
inside a deep-dish
crust. After tasting
the combination of
fresh mozzarella,
hearty sauce and
delicious crust, they
were sold on it.
The stomach contained an enzyme
called rennet, which caused the
milk to form protein-rich curds.
Most types of cheese are com-
posed of just a few ingredients.
Besides rennet and milk, salt and a
culture of igood bacteria~ usually
are used. Making a pound of
cheese requires 10 pounds of milk.
You can make fresh mozzarella
or ricotta cheese at home quite eas-
ily. See http://www.national-
dairycouncil.org for the method to
make homemade ricotta.
Cheese contributes protein, cal-
cium and phosphorus to our diet,
and these nutrients nourish our
bones and teeth. Some recently
published research has shown no
link between heart disease risk and
cheese consumption. More re-
search is under way.
Further, some people with lac-
tose intolerance (inability to digest
milk sugar) can consume natural
cheese without digestive upset.
Keep in mind the calorie con-
tent of all your food choices,
though. One ounce of cheese has
about 100 calories, depending on
the type Of cheese. An ounce is a
1-inch cube or four small dice. If
you are watching your sodium in-
take, pay attention to Nutrition
Facts labels.
If you decide to have a snack of
cheese and crackers, place a serv-
ing on a plate and put the rest of
the food back in the refrigerator or
cupboard. Enjoy some fruit and
veggies with your cheese for a nu-
trient-rich snack.
Serving cheese with food may
improve choices. Some researchers
have shown that sprinkling a little
cheese on veggies enticed children
to eat them.
Now I am hungry for some
cheesy pizza. Try this easy-to-
make recipe from the Midwest
Dairy Association. Itis not quite
Chicago-style pizza, but it tastes
great and you donff have to drive a
long way to get it. You could be
eating before a pizza delivery per-
son could get to your door. Person-
alize it by adding some chopped
vegetables, such as onions or fresh
basil.
