Description Gruyère - Swiss
Choose your desired weight for this sublime Gruyère. Perfectly cut to size for your culinary wishes.
Since the year 1115, Gruyère has been produced in the lush meadows surrounding the Swiss town of the same name. This raw milk specialty bears the prestigious AOP quality mark, which guarantees that Gruyère is exclusively made artisanally and locally. The cows graze on fresh alpine herbs in the summer and local hay in the winter, which gives the milk an unprecedentedly rich character. After a careful maturation of at least five to twelve months, Gruyère develops its typical savory, fruity, and nutty flavor. The dairy is firm and compact, but at the same time supple enough to melt fabulously well. An essential ingredient.

A Culinary Legend
Gruyère is not without reason the absolute basis for a traditional Swiss cheese fondue. Gruyère melts incomparably smoothly and gives a rich, savory depth without separating. Also over an authentic French onion soup or in a luxurious quiche Lorraine, a thick layer of grated Gruyère is truly indispensable.
However, feel free to leave the oven off, because Gruyère is also a delight pure on a cheese board. Cut Gruyère into beautiful, firm wedges and serve at room temperature. The complex flavor notes are perfectly expressed next to juicy, sweet grapes, crunchy walnuts, and a glass of lightly chilled Pinot Noir.

5 Frequently Asked Questions about Gruyère
What is the difference between Gruyère and Emmentaler?
Emmentaler is known for its large holes and very mild, slightly sweeter taste. Gruyère, on the other hand, rarely has holes, is much firmer and more compact, and possesses a much more powerful, saltier, and intensely nutty flavor.
Why is Gruyère so good for melting?
Gruyère has a perfect ratio of moisture, fat, and proteins. Because of this, Gruyère melts beautifully silky smooth and evenly, without separating fat (curdling). That is why it is the king among fondue cheeses.
Does real Gruyère have holes?
Real Gruyère (AOP) has a dense and smooth structure. Sometimes small cracks or very small pits (eyes) can occur in it, but large holes do not belong in a traditional Gruyère.
Is Gruyère lactose-free?
Yes! Because it is a hard, ripened cheese, the lactose is completely broken down during the ripening process. Therefore, Gruyère is naturally 100% lactose-free.
How much Gruyère do I need for a fondue?
For a classic fondue, count on about 200 to 250 grams of cheese per person. Gruyère is often combined with Vacherin for this. Discover all options in the Gruyère category.
