She was also \"swimming in milk,\" and had to do something with it besides drink it. So she started making cheese.  Today Chenel, 33, is California's first producer of fromage de chÃ¨vre'the soft and creamy king of goat cheese. Hers is served in Los Angeles' Ma Mai-son and L'Orangerie; Berkeley's haute cuisine Chez Panisse stuffs it into tangy calzone, and Brooklyn's River Cafe orders 200 cheeses a week for salads and sauces.  Learning to make chÃ¨vre got Chenel's goat more than once. Her first attempts failed, so she bought a French book on goat cheese. Then she changed her major at Sonoma State University from anthropology to French so she could read it. Finally, in 1980, Chenel went to France to meet Jean Claude le Jouen, author of the book, who sent her to learn from several master cheesemakers.  Duly inspired, Chenel set up shop in a house in Sebastopol, Calif. Alas, while the cellar temperature and humidity were perfect for the finicky cheese, wild strains of bacteria in the air turned the milk into gassy, curdled sponges. \"I mean, it was bacteriological battle down there,\" she recalls with a shudder. Last September she moved to a Santa Rosa, Calif. building (previously occupied by a snail-freezing factory) and went to work perfecting her product with partner Neal VanDegrift, a chemist and bacteriologist."},{"label":"Search SCL Digital Archives for this Author","value":["Chenel, Laura"]},{"label":"Search Author or Book in Library Catalog","value":"Search for works by Laura Chenel in the <a href=\"https://find.sonomalibrary.org/client/en_US/default/search/results?qu=%22Chenel%2C+Laura%22&te=&rt=false%7C%7C%7CAuthor\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">library catalog</a>"},{"label":"Author Website","value":"View <a href=\"https://laurachenel.com/ \" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">personal or professional website</a> for Laura Chenel"},{"label":"Search Author in Open Library","value":"Search for works by Laura Chenel in <a href=\"https://openlibrary.org/search/authors?q=Chenel+Laura\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Open Library</a>"},{"label":"Author's Place(s) of Residence","value":["Sebastopol"]},{"label":"Sort Title","value":"Laura Chenel"},{"label":"Significant Title","value":"Chevre!
