The mature and powerful taste of Matured Cumin Cheese
Cumin cheese (in Holland known as Komijnekaas) is a centuries-old, traditional specialty in the Netherlands and extremely popular because of its warm and slightly nutty character. The combination of authentic Gouda cheese and savory spices is a resounding success. Where a young cumin cheese mainly excels in softness, with this matured variant you truly choose character. The cheese is given 16 to 25 weeks to mature peacefully on the wooden boards in the cheese warehouse. This careful, long maturation process ensures that the cheese becomes slightly firmer and develops a lot of extra spice. It is a truly mature cheese, but still retaining that smooth 48+ character.
During the traditional preparation process, the cumin seeds are carefully and generously stirred through the fresh curd. Because the cheese matures longer, the essential oils from the cumin have had extra time to absorb into the dairy. As a result, the aromatic, spicy flavor of the cumin is exceptionally well distributed throughout the cheese. The result is a beautiful, harmonious taste experience in which the piquant cheese and the nutty spices perfectly enhance each other. Matured cumin cheese is therefore the ideal cheese for the true enthusiast. It tastes fantastic on a sturdy slice of farmhouse bread, is delicious to eat pure as a snack, and lifts a spicy casserole to an even higher level.
