Great Yorkshire Cheese
Two Yorkshire famers are trying to create a cheese that matches the taste and complexity of traditional Wensleydale. Caz Graham meets them on their Nidderdale farm.
High in the Yorkshire Dales, Andrew and Sally Hatton are taking a leaf out of the history books to set their Nidderdale hill farm on a solid footing for the future. They鈥檙e making a traditional seasonal unpasteurised farmhouse cheese with milk from their small herd of critically rare Northern Dairy Shorthorns. It鈥檚 the kind of cheese and breed of cattle that were commonplace in the Dales a hundred years ago, but now both are very rare. Caz Graham drops in as one of Britain's top cheese buyers, Bronwyn Percival of Neal's Yard Dairy drops in to taste the new cheese that the Hattons hope to offer to the public later this summer.
