Mimolette

Mimolette

Mimolette

  • Country: France
  • Cheese Texture/Type: Firm
  • Cheese Milk Type: Cow
  • Cheese Age: 12 months
Also known as Boule de Lille, Mimolette is creamy, hard, cow's milk cheese produced in Flanders and Normandy. Mimolette is essentially a matured Edam that is allowed to ripen for six to nine months. The natural rind ranges in color from yellow orange to light brown and is pitted, dry and hard. Intensely fruity, it is popular as a cooking cheese and as a snack with a glass of beer. When young (4 - 6 months), the cheese is firm, compact and slightly oily with a subtle fruity aroma and a mellow nutty taste. Most Mimolette, however, is eaten aged. The bright, deep tangerine color of the cheese is due to the natural dye, annatto.

Edam

  • Country: Netherlands
  • Cheese Texture/Type: Firm
  • Cheese Milk Type: Cow
  • Cheese Age: 2-3 months

The most famous Dutch cheese, Edam, is made with partially-skimmed cow's milk, and is meant to be eaten within weeks of its creation, while it's still smooth. Pasteurized milk is heated and bacteria is added to increase the acidity level. Liquid rennet is added to create curd, and the curd is cut into tiny pieces, then heated, drained, molded and pressed. After the cheese is salted, it ripens and is exported wrapped in red wax.

Originally a Dutch cheese, versions of Gouda are now made by artisan cheesemakers throughout the world, like Michigan’s Old Europe Cheese. Old Europe’s Smoked Gouda is unique in that it’s smoked using a “cold smoke” process, which preserves the cheese’s inherent flavor and moisture.
