Description Happy Mrs. Jersey Cheerful Lady - Organic Jersey Cheese

The Happy Mrs. Jersey Cheerful Lady - Organic Jersey Cheese is an absolute treat for the gourmet. This premium cheese is artisanally made from 100% organic Jersey milk at the care farm De Mèkkerstee in Ouddorp. Because milk from Jersey cows is naturally much richer in fats and proteins, the cheese does not dry out during the long ripening time of about 26 to 30 weeks. On the contrary: an impressive, smooth structure with an intense, savory-sweet flavor emerges. The dairy is also full of beautiful, crackling protein crystals that melt on the tongue. A 100% vegetarian and pure nature masterpiece that rightfully brings a smile to your face.

Order Happy Mrs. Jersey Cheerful Lady - Organic Jersey Cheese online

  • ✔ Matured for about 6 to 7 months on wooden shelves for a robust aroma
  • ✔ Produced from 100% organic meadow milk from the Jersey cow
  • ✔ Smooth and rich in delicious white, crunchy protein crystals
  • ✔ Completely lactose-free and prepared with vegetarian rennet

Characterful and Versatile

Thanks to its full, extra matured character, the Cheerful Lady is a true star on the cheese board. Break or cut her into coarse, robust pieces and simply serve with a rich fig chutney, dark chocolate, or fresh walnuts. You will notice that the sweet caramel notes are beautifully accentuated by this.

Also as a culinary seasoning in the hot kitchen, she is unsurpassed. Subtly grate the cheese over a warm autumn salad, a freshly baked quiche, or a savory onion soup for a luxurious, deep flavor. Combine all this with a sturdy, full-bodied red wine such as a Merlot or a classic port for a gastronomic evening.

5 Frequently Asked Questions about Happy Mrs. Jersey Cheerful Lady - Organic Jersey Cheese

Why is this cheese called 'Cheerful Lady'?

The name is a playful and cheerful nod to the happy, well-cared-for Jersey cows of De Mèkkerstee and to the uplifting flavor profile of the cheese. The rich, sweet-savory aroma brings a smile to every cheese lover's face.

Isn't an Extra Matured Jersey cheese very dry?

No! Jersey milk is exceptionally rich in fat, protein, and carotene. Even after a long ripening of 6 to 7 months, the cheese retains an unprecedentedly smooth, buttery mouthfeel, unlike many other old cheeses.

Are there crystals in this cheese?

Yes, the ripening time of over half a year ensures that the proteins in the cheese crystallize. This creates the delicious and highly coveted light 'crunch' while eating.

Is the Cheerful Lady lactose-free?

Yes. Because this extra matured cheese has been in the warehouse for 6 to 7 months, all milk sugars (lactose) have been 100% broken down through a natural process. Ideal for a lactose-free diet.

What other variants does the Happy Mrs. Jersey line have?

We offer a beautiful buildup in ripening. From the young 'Young Pleasure', the matured 'Pinks Enjoy', to the extremely old and crumbly 'Old Wisdom'. Discover them all in the Mèkkerstee Organic Cheeses category.
