Gruyere (7 ounces) by Gourmet-Food.com
By: Gourmet-Food.com
Our price:
- Imported from Switzerland
- Cow's Milk
- Hard Texture
- Picture depicts a 7-oz. piece
|
Product Description
The milk for the Swiss gourmet cheese Gruyère is brought to the dairy by the producers, and every delivery is strictly controlled and analyzed. The milk will undergo no thermic treatment until its transformation into cheese. This guarantees the preservation of the flora that gives Gruyère AOC its typical taste. The cheese maker adds the cultures that will mature the milk. Once maturation is achieved, the cheese maker adds the rennet. In the space of 3 or 4 minutes, the contents of the vat totally changes in appearance. A warm odor fills the dairy. After about three months, the Gruyère cheese wheels are transported to a "finishing house" to complete their maturation (several more months are necessary for them to acquire their full flavor). The last stages of the maturation process will continue in the cellars and will last 5-12 months.

A rustic, somewhat oily rind gives way to firm, smooth textured cheese which is slightly aromatic with a robust, assertive flavor.

Beaufort d'Alpage (8 ounce) by igourmet.com
By: igourmet
Our price:
- Nicknamed the
- Very complex flavor due to cows grazing on wild grasses
- An excellent melting cheese
- Made from unpasteurized milk
- Imported from France
|
Product Description
Named after a small rural town in the French Alps, a whole wheel of this cheese weighs over 80 pounds. We found it to be creamier and richer than other Alpine cheeses like Emmental, Gruyere, and Comté. The term D'Alpage indicates that this Beaufort is made from milk taken from Tarines (a breed of mountain cows) that graze naturally. Due to harsh winters, the cows can only graze in the summer, making this "Prince of Gruyeres" a seasonal treat. Aging of up to eight months takes place in the cooler months in rural Alpine cellars. With each bite, hints of various grasses, herbs, and wildflowers are notable to those with sensitive palates. Its flavor is nutty, creamy, and sweet. Like Gruyere, Beaufort melts well and is perfect for fondue and hot sandwiches. - Made from unpasteurized cow's milk.
- Whole form is 22 pounds.
- We cut and wrap this item by the 1/2 pound.

Our price:
- Imported from Switzerland
- Cow's Milk

Product Description
The Cave-aged Gruyère is matured for about one year in the secluded caves of Kaltbach near Lucerne in Switzerland. In the cool and humid air of these sandstone caves;the gourmet cheeses develop a dense texture with small salt crystals. The cheese may have some desirable holes, but these are not essential. The cheese is smooth to the touch with a slightly damp feel. It is soft, reasonably firm and crumbly. Its even ivory colouring varies according to the season. The flavor of Cave-aged Gruyère is refined, yet intense and you will agree with us that this is a cheese that you will appreciate.

Gruyere de Comte (8 ounce) by igourmet.com
By: igourmet
Our price:
|
Product Description
Comté is a handmade, artisan cheese of the truest type. While modern techniques have been embraced where they can facilitate procedures and increase quality, the production of Comté remains based on traditional methods. Each stage is subject to strict rules that are set down in the AOC specifications to ensure each wheel is just as perfect as the last. First of all, Comté milk is produced on more than 3,000 family farms in the mountainous region of French Comté practicing non-intensive agriculture, i.e. agriculture that, rather than aiming for the highest possible yields, focuses on quality, and takes into account soil characteristics. The cheese-making process must start within twenty-four hours of the milk being collected, and so Comté is made every day. Local producers bring their milk to the cheese dairy where it is made into Comté. Generally of a cooperative nature, this particular form of village-based organization originated eight centuries ago. An approach that incorporates solidarity and sharing has been preserved, as have the small-scale production techniques and traditions which make Comté a great cheese. In the silence and shadowy darkness of the cellars Comté undergoes a second transformation, as the wheels age on spruce boards. The new wheels are carefully looked after so as to encourage the natural development of flavors as the months pass by. This Comté is aged for sixth months, were it develops a tight-knit texture and satiny body. On the palate, one can detect notes of fruits, hay, and a slightly nutty, smoky flavor gained during the process when the curd is cooked. - Made from unpasteurized cow''s milk; aged for six months
- Whole form is 70 pounds.
- We cut and wrap this item by the half-pound.
