Excerpt from Le Fromage de l'Îsle-d'Orléans
Surle rdtelier, avant d'y placer les fromages. On met une petite natte en jonc que l'on appelle un paillasson. Cette nette est faite avec des brins de jonc de l'espèce -sppelée en botanique Joao épars, Juncus efiusus, Bull rush, variété qui se rencontre partout dans les fossés et les terrains humides et qui croit en larges toufies. Pour fabriquer cette nette qui a deux pieds trois pouces de large, on place sur une tal - le environ cent cinquante brins de ce jonc, et on les enfile les une à côt.' des autres au moyen d'une forte aiguille garnie d'un gros fil de lin filé à la ferme, puis on arrète bien ce fil chaque côté du paillasson. On met, de distance en distance, autant de ces fils qu'il en faut pour que la nette soit solide. On s'applique à mettre toutes, h une mème extrémité du paillasson, les tètes des brins et à l'autre leur gros bout, afin qu'il n'y ait pas d'espace trop considérable entre chaque brin, ce qui serait cause que les fromages que l'on met trés mous sur le râtelier se déformeraîsnt.
