Takes Gouda to a new level
Still cant get enough of this cheese-its SO good
This handsome Gouda is named Farmdal. It comes to us from Belgium, from the same producers as the wildly successful Old Groendal Kristal, the Deweer family.
It has everything you want in a Gouda: Crunchy Crystals, classic Gouda notes that everyone loves, sweet and caramel like, with subtle fruit undertones.
We advise buying small quantities more frequently to avoid long term storage because the complex flavors and aromas of good cheese will change and degrade over time. For appetizer quantities and not much left over, we suggest 1/4 lb per person. For larger servings or if you'd like some left overs, we suggest a full 1/2 lb per person.
You can serve any number of cheeses: a single magnificent chèvre or a large selection celebrating the diversity of aromas, flavors and textures found in various traditions around the world. Choose what you like and what you expect your audience will enjoy. We usually go for a selection of three to four cheeses with various milk types, textures and flavors.
Take your cheese out of the refrigerator an hour or so before serving. Just before serving, unwrap each cheese and scrape the cut surface with a knife edge to remove a thin layer. If you notice dried out parts or mold on the face of the cheese, cut it away.
Most cheeses have rinds and most rinds are edible. If you don’t like the taste or texture, cut it off.
Cheese stored for some time may grow exterior molds. Typical molds will be white or blue-green but you can sometimes come across yellow or gray. Most of the time, you can refresh the cheese by cutting away those affected areas. The cheese underneath will be fine.
Store in a higher humidity area of your refrigerator - likely an enclosed spot which allows for limited airflow rather than constant drafts.
Use a clean wrap of the cheese paper, or, in a pinch use parchment (for softer cheeses) or aluminum foil (for firm to hard cheeses).
Enjoy!

We have been ordering it from Fromaggio Kitchen for about 6 months. My family goes crazy over the wonderful flavor, and the smooth texture. It's a gouda, but so much better!
