Description Mèkkerstee Neeltje - Organic Goat Cheese

The Mèkkerstee Neeltje - Organic Goat Cheese is a beautiful tribute to the pure, artisanal farm life at the De Mèkkerstee care farm. Unlike the large wheels of goat cheese, 'Neeltje' is made in a charming, smaller size of only 4 kilos. This so-called 'midi' cheese therefore ripens in a completely different, softer way. It results in an extremely smooth, mild goat cheese that literally melts on the tongue. Naturally, Neeltje is prepared with the very best organic goat's milk, curdled with vegetarian rennet, and ripens with passion on wooden shelves. An accessible, creamy treat without an overpowering goat flavor.

A Soft Character Cheese

Thanks to its extremely mild character, Mèkkerstee Neeltje is a favorite for the whole family. You can effortlessly cut or slice the soft cheese for the breakfast table, for example on a fresh roll or soft white bread. It also combines fantastically well with a touch of honey or fresh strawberries.

Organizing a cozy afternoon? Neeltje feels completely at home on a cheese board next to soft, white grapes and unsalted cashews. Even in a summer salad, this smooth goat cheese provides a wonderfully creamy addition. Pour a smooth, light white wine or a clear wheat beer to enjoy it to the fullest.

5 Frequently Asked Questions about Mèkkerstee Neeltje - Organic Goat Cheese

Why is this cheese named 'Neeltje'?

Neeltje is a traditional, thoroughly Dutch name that symbolizes the artisanal love and the small scale of the farm. It gives this special little cheese an affectionate, distinct identity within the Mèkkerstee family.

What is the advantage of a smaller goat cheese (4 kilos)?

The size of a cheese wheel directly influences the ripening process. A smaller wheel like Neeltje generally ripens softer and loses its creaminess less quickly. This results in a very smooth, mild, and accessible dairy.

Does Neeltje have a strong, 'goaty' aftertaste?

Absolutely not! De Mèkkerstee is known for its extremely pure, fresh, and organic goat's milk. Partly due to the loving, stress-free care of the goats, that typical, strong smell or aftertaste is completely absent.

Is the cheese 100% vegetarian and organic?

Yes, Mèkkerstee Neeltje is made exclusively from organically certified goat's milk and is curdled with a microbial (vegetarian) rennet. Completely responsible enjoyment.

Does De Mèkkerstee also have large cheeses with a stronger flavor?

Yes, if you like a somewhat more robust, older goat cheese, we offer the Mèkkerstee Old and Extra Matured (from large wheels). Discover them all in the Mèkkerstee Goat Cheese category.
