Boerenkaas (8 ounces) by igourmet.com
By: igourmet
Our price:
- One of just a few handmade Goudas
- Made from raw milk, aged for 6 months
- A full, tangy flavor, with much more character than any factory-made Gouda
- Only seasonally made from May to October
- Imported from Holland
|
Product Description
In modern Holland, there are few remaining farmers who still make cheese by hand on the farm. Boerenkaas is, by definition, a handmade Gouda. Creating Boerenkaas is more art than science, leveraging a tremendous amount of knowledge, tradition and skill in the process. Our Boerenkaas is only made from May to October when the weather permits the cows to stay outside and eat fresh grass. Because it is made from raw milk, this cheese has a full, tangy flavor, with much more character than any factory-made Gouda cheese could possibly match. Its 6 month aging period gives the even more flavor and leaves behind characteristic amino acid crystals. Enjoy with a full-bodied red wine and a hunk of fresh bread.

Beemster Gouda with Cumin (8 ounces) by igourmet.com

- Best milk comes from the Beemster Polder
- Uses classic Beemster recipe with the addition of cumin
- Beemster is more aged than the traditional Leyden
- Goes great with a glass of ale
- Cut and wrapped in a one pound piece
|
Product Description
The Beemster Cheeses come from the quiet, canal-lined pastures of North Holland. This remarkable landscape, located 20ft below sea level, was reclaimed from the sea in the year 1612. In search of more pastures farmers moved north and found a lagoon stretching into the sea. Using dykes and 106 windmills this area, referred to as a Polder, was drained and soon became inhabited by farmers and their herds. When farmers began to till the soil, they discovered blue sea-clay, which had been at the bottom of the lagoon for millions of years. Pastures thrived in this newly-found soil and cows loved grazing on the lush grasses. It soon became known throughout The Netherlands that the best milk came from the Beemster Polder. To preserve their much sought-after milk, they formed a cheese cooperative in 1901. Today Beemster is crafted using the original techniques employed by the founders of the co-op. The Master Cheesemakers that create Beemster Cheeses all are local residents in the polder and have inherited generations of experience in crafting cheese. The Beemster recipe still remains a closely guarded secret that has been handed down since 1901. Their latest cheese uses their classic recipe with the addition of cumin. Spices such as cumin, caraway, and cloves are fixtures in Dutch cuisine, the most well-known cheese being Leyden (with cumin or caraway). Beemsters version is more aged than traditional Leyden, and with their spectacular milk as a base, the result is better than other commercial spiced cheeses from Holland. A glass of fine ale makes a fine complement to this savory gouda. Made from pasteurized cow's milk. Photo depicts 24 lb. wheel, we cut and wrap this cheese by the pound. This is the only cheese to receive the Appointment to the Royal Court of The Netherlands.

Parrano (8 ounces) by igourmet.com
By: igourmet
Our price:
- imported from Holland
- cow's milk
- aged 5 months
- Dutch gouda with an Italian flair
- full flavored and nutty
|
Product Description
This cheese has been called the Dutch Gouda with an Italian flair. A relatively new cheese from the Netherlands, Parrano is aged for five months to develop the nutty taste of Parmigiano Reggiano or Grana Padano, while maintaining the firm, smooth texture of a young Gouda. This marriage of characteristics brings you the best of both worlds. The cheese is full of flavor, yet it is easy to cut, grate, and melt. Parrano is also reminiscent of extra aged Gouda or Old Amsterdam.

Beemster Vlaskaas (8 ounces) by igourmet.com
By: igourmet
Our price:
- Award winning!
- From an ancient recipe
- Made according to old-fashioned, traditional methods
- Similar to Gouda but richer and creamier
- Imported from Holland
|
Product Description
The geographical region encompassing the former country of Flanders contains two Belgian provinces, present-day Nord (France), and the southern part of Zeeland (Holland) known as Zeeuws-Vlaanderen ("Sealandic Flanders"). This area is very well known for flax, a useful flowering plant that grows wild throughout Europe, but is especially abundant in Flanders. Famous throughout history, flax was used by the ancient Egyptian and Roman civilizations to make paper and linen. Today it is still used to make linseed oil and printing ink. The recipe for this cheese from Zeeuws-Vlaanderen dates back many centuries. Its name means "Flax Cheese", owing not to an ingredient but to the plant that dominates the local countryside. Still made in an old-fashioned manner, in the Middle Ages it was quite popular and always served at the annual oogstfeest (Flemish harvest festival). Similar to Gouda but richer, creamier and deeper yellow in color, Vlaskaas' purple rind distinguishes it from all other cheeses. Gold medal winner at the 2004 World Championship Cheese Contest

Beemster X.O. - Extra DOUBLE Aged Gouda (1 Pound) by igourmet.com
By: igourmet
Our price:
- imported from Holland
- cow's milk
- aged 36 months
- intense, butterscotch, nutty flavor
- hard and grateable,yet creamy on the palate
|
Product Description
A cheese that requires three adjectives to describe it had better be something special. Well, we nearly died of delight when we first sampled this remarkable cheese. In our minds, the chance that any cheese could be even more flavorful than our 18-month Aged Gouda was remote. But this one pulled it off! The first thing we noticed about our new 36-month Gouda was that its texture was crumbly, like that of Parmigiano Reggiano or Grana Padano. Then we tasted it, and WOW! was it packed with flavor. Butterscotch immediately came to mind, followed by alternating waves of whiskey and pecan. All this from a product with three basic ingredients: milk, salt and, most importantly, time.

Product Description
The cheese market in Holland is changing rapidly. For years, Holland was known for Gouda and Edam, two simple cheeses that appeal to the masses. But as tastes have moved upscale, the popularity of Gouda and Edam has waned. With almost every cheese plant in Holland geared up for the production of these two cheeses, a gap between supply and demand threatened to put the smaller cheesemakers out of business. While many got bought out by larger competitors, several shifted their strategy to new and inventive specialty cheeses. Since the mid 1990's, many new cheeses have been developed in Holland. Rouveen, the maker of this cheese, is one of the pioneers of the specialty movement. Rouveen's Walnut Gouda turns plain old boring Gouda into something fantastic and exciting. A cheese you will crave endlessly, Walnut Gouda is everything you expect it to be and more. Subtle yet flavorful, the walnut adds a sensual warmth to the basic Gouda cheese, whose texture is not gummy like many Goudas on the market. A truly surprising cheese, we recommend serving Walnut Gouda at your next party or get together.

However this Farmhouse variety is encased in a ruby red parrafin rind and seems to have a slightly higher fat content, giving the cheese a richer flavor and creamier texture.

- Chimay with Beer, Capra Honey Goat and Passendale
- Each cheese is an 8 ounce package
- Imported from Belgium
- Please note that any item temporarily out of stock will be substituted with a similar item of equal value
|
Product Description
Long known and respected for its chocolates, Belgium is also a great cheese country. It is said that, despite its small size, Belgium produces as many distinct types of cheese as does France. Many of its 300+ varieties are made in very small quantities and are not exported out of the country. The examples we do get, however, are quite impressive. This unique assortment includes three of our favorites: Passendale: A semi-soft cow's milk cheese with a delicious flavor and sweet bouquet. It will not offend those with basic tastes, yet will still wow the gourmets. This semi-soft variety is a little bit sweet, quite creamy, golden on the inside with small holes beneath a hard but edible rind. Raphael: Made by the friars of the Postel Abbey, Raphael is one of their new creations. Named after the angel Raphael, this "real Abbeycheese" is a washed rind variety aged about 8 weeks. It has a lovely, creamy flavor and a very smooth texture. Old Postel: Also from the Trappist monks of the Postel Abbey, Old Postel has a firm texture, a pleasing aroma, and a slightly salty flavor. It is aged for over 12 months and is therefore fairly dry and hard enough to grate. In addition to its rich nutty flavor, Postel has slight hints of various spices, such as clove and nutmeg. This assortment contains three 1/2 wedges.
