How do you interpret this?
Mozarella loam contains how much silt, sand and clay?
Revonult@lemmy.world 4 months ago
Follow the lines that match the angles of the numbers.

But which way? I can go to two different ways towards a side
RidgeDweller@sh.itjust.works 4 months ago
Clay is read horizontally left to right, sand is read diagonally bottom right to top left, and silt is read diagonally top right to bottom left. So, the center of the mozzarella zone would be about 20% clay, 40% sand, and 40% silt.

Mozzarella/loam is 20-50 sand, 30-50 silt and 10-30 clay - pay attention to the angle of the numbers and follow the diagonal lines. The center of the triangle has to be 33/33/33

Why would grated parm be different from parm regianno?

You Americans are funny. There is no real cheese in the diagram.
Kazumara@discuss.tchncs.de 4 months ago
Parmigiano Reggiano and Brie are pretty legit I would say.
I hate the term “Swiss Cheese” though. There are loads of sorts of cheese here in Switzerland. None are called just “Swiss Cheese”. If they mean Emmentaler they should just say so.
FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 4 months ago
Too many syllables.
Just saying, we’re idiots over here, and in any case Emantaller cheese sold as Swiss in the US install made here.
sebsch@discuss.tchncs.de 4 months ago
I am totally missing things like Appenzeller, Grujere or as you said Emmentaler. There is a giant category of cheese and nobody would ever call that Swiss.
But also camembert is missing. Yes brie is legit but is by far not as good and important as a camembert made of unpasteurized milk.

I can’t hear you over the sizzling of my pasteurized process cheese as it melts so well.

My brother in Christ, you have not had real cheese until you have had Vermont Cheddar.

No, please, free me from this. Because in my head I'm super annoyed at how well this seems to work and I need rescuing from an expert.

You are not gonna get Brie when you add enough goat cheese to grated Parmesan.
Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net 4 months ago
It probably works for you because the triangle is legit and used heavily in soil science.
Stuff closer to a corner is more closely related to the main particle size (sand, silt or clay). What I don’t like about this meme though is that things like ‘grated parmesan’ should be right next the Parmesan-blahblah-im-too-lazy-to-spell-it
