Description Mèkkerstee Matured - Organic Goat Cheese

The Mèkkerstee Matured - Organic Goat Cheese is an absolute delicacy originating from the care farm De Mèkkerstee in Ouddorp. By allowing the cheese about 4 to 5 months (16 to 20 weeks) of time in the ripening warehouse, an unmatchable full and rich flavor profile is created. The cheese begins to form light, crackling protein crystals, but because the base consists of the very best organic goat's milk, the dairy still melts velvety soft on the tongue. It distinguishes itself with a slightly sweet, nutty aftertaste, free of the overpowering smell that characterizes some goat cheeses. A masterpiece of pure Dutch craftsmanship and 100% organic.

5 Frequently Asked Questions about Mèkkerstee Matured - Organic Goat Cheese

What is the difference in taste between the Young Matured and this Matured goat cheese?

The Young Matured ripens for about 8 to 10 weeks and is quite soft. The Mèkkerstee Matured ripens considerably longer, namely about 4 to 5 months (16-20 weeks). Because of this, it is fuller, rounder, slightly nutty, and contains the first small protein crystals.

Are there small hard dots in this cheese?

Yes, that's correct! Due to the longer maturation of 4 to 5 months, the proteins in the cheese begin to crystallize. These white dots provide a light, delicious 'crunch' and are a sign of excellent quality.

Is the goat flavor very strong in this matured cheese?

Although the cheese is full and rich in flavor, De Mèkkerstee is known for its very pure, accessible cheeses without that typical, strong 'goaty' aftertaste. The organic feed and stress-free environment of the goats contribute enormously to this.

Can I use this cheese for cooking?

Absolutely! Because the cheese is matured, it is fantastic to grate, but thanks to the high quality of the milk, it also still melts incredibly well. Perfect for oven dishes or pasta.

Are there other organic cheeses from De Mèkkerstee available besides the Matured?

Certainly, we have the complete assortment in house. From the extremely mild young variant to the very spicy old cheese, plus delicious herb variants. Discover them in the Mèkkerstee Goat Cheese category.
