It is produced in Central Spain's La Mancha region, a territory known for its fierce winds, violent temperature swings and desert-like aridity.

Manchego (1 Pound) by igourmet.com
By: igourmet
Our price:
- imported from Spain
- sheep's milk
- firm, slightly dry
- herbal aroma and flavor
- Try it in your favorite risotto
|
Product Description
Manchego is Spain's most famous cheese. Produced in La Mancha in Central Spain, true Manchego is made from 100% sheep's milk. Cheeses from Spain are commonly made from sheep's milk because most of the territory is rocky and dry, unfriendly to cows but suitable to raising goats and sheep. The abundance of wild herbs on Central Spain's grazing lands gives Manchego a special taste and aroma. Its flavor is zesty and exuberant while its texture is firm and somewhat dry. Manchego can be recognized by the zigzag pattern etched into its rind. This is created by the rippled surface of the press used in the manufacture of the cheese. Underneath the inedible rind, the interior is ivory colored with few small holes. Taste Manchego for the first time and you will be surprised at how long the wonderful flavor lingers on your palate. It is an experience you will be drawn back to again and again. Made from pasteurized ewe's milk.

Idiazabal (8 ounces) by igourmet.com
By: igourmet
Our price:
- imported from Spain
- unpasteurized sheep's milk
- delicately smoked
- handmade
- perfumey bouquet, buttery flavor
|
Product Description
This handmade, unpasteurized sheep's milk cheese comes from the Spanish Pyrenees. Idiazabal is naturally smoked with a hard but edible orange-brown rind. In the old days, Basque shepherds lived in small mountain huts and had no space to store and age their cheeses other than inside their stone chimneys. As it turned out, people enjoyed the smoky flavor that the cheese acquired from aging inside the chimneys, and Idiazabal spread throughout Spain. Today, Idiazabal is produced in more modern facilities, but the process is still all-natural. The cheese is as delicious as ever, and the quality is more consistent. We love its perfumy bouquet and rich, buttery flavor and enthusiastically recommend Idiazabal as one of Spain's greatest cheeses. Made from unpasteurized ewe's milk.

Gamonedo - Select Cut (1/2 Pound) By Igourmet.com
By: igourmet
Our price:
- Unpasteurized cow, goat, and sheep's milk
- lightly smoked
- matured in caves for 3 months
- Imported from Spain
- great in sauces
|
Product Description
Beyond the northern slopes of the Cantábrica range, lies the Principality of Asturias. It is regarded as an enduring bastion of basic values and traditions of Spain. The inaccessibility of this mountainous territory, wedged as it is between the ocean and the high mountains which separate it from the central meseta, has kept it unspoiled and with its traditions intact. This is also why it is Spain's richest cheese producing area today. Gamonedo is made with raw full cow's, goat's and sheep's milk, mixed in a fixed proportion and with animal rennet. It is left to curdle for a day, molded and salted. It is lightly pressed so it is more compact than Cabrales. Gamonedo is lightly smoked, then matured in natural caves for at least 3 months. The rind is naturally formed and dry with a gray mold. The mild smokiness of this blue combined with a lively, spicy buttery flavor makes this a very special cheese. Try pairing it with young Riojas or even cider. Its crumbly texture makes it good on salads, simply served on toasted fresh bread, melted or used in sauces.

- pairs well with Serrano ham

Product Description
This is a Manchego-style cheese made from blended cow, goat and sheep's milk. It is made in the same type of mold and, therefore, has the same, hatched pattern imprinted into its rind. One of the most popular in Spain, this hard, oily cheese is mild, yet tasty and aromatic. The blend of milks allows it to have the grassier, herbier flavors of the goat and sheeps milk toned down by the smoothness of cows milk. It is typically used as a table cheese but is also good for cooking and pairs well with Spanish red wines and Spanish meats, such as Chorizo and Jamon Serrano. · Made from pasteurized Cow, goat & sheeps milk

Product Description
In the Sevilla kitchen I often reach for Manchego because it is delicious on its own but also perfect in many cooking applications. This delicious, crumbly hard cheese made from ewes milk is reminiscent of Italian Parmesan off the block. I serve it at Sevilla as a tapa, drizzling thin slices with a fine olive oil, which I think is the best way to bring out its subtle flavor and texture. In our bocadillos platter its combined with savory jamón Serrano on slices of crusty bread. Manchego is so versatile, youll find it in several of our popular dishes, including Queso Fundido, where its combined with goat cheese and baked in a clay dish; and Pollo Romesco, stuffed chicken breasts with Manchego and shrimp wrapped in jamon Serrano. I mix it into our roasted garlic mashed potatoes, melt it as a topping for Pisto vegetable stew and slice slivers of it onto our house salad! You can also grate it like Parmesan over pasta or vegetables.
