Grassy Cheese - May cheese
Graskaas is a type of cheese that is traditionally made in the Netherlands during the springtime, when cows are first let out to graze on the fresh grass. The name "graskaas" literally means "grass cheese" in Dutch.
This cheese is typically made from fresh, raw milk that has a high fat content, which gives the cheese its characteristic creamy texture and rich flavor. Graskaas is usually aged for only a few weeks, which results in a young cheese with a mild, slightly sweet taste and a soft, smooth texture.
