Ingredients of Skylger Pikant

Ingredients:
Fat 48+, pasteurized cow's milk, microbial rennet, starter culture, salt.

Why choose Skylger cheese?

Skylger cheese is a household name for gourmets. 'Skylge' is the local name for the Wadden island of Terschelling, and this cheese embodies the pure nature of the island. The cows graze in the salty sea breeze on the island meadows, resulting in milk of exceptionally high quality. This milk forms the basis for the unique, full, and slightly salty flavor of the cheese. The 'Pikant' variant has been allowed to mature extra long, developing a beautifully robust and spicy flavor profile.

Despite the spicy flavor, the texture of the cheese remains wonderfully supple (creamy and soft). What makes this cheese extra special is that it is prepared with microbial rennet, making it completely vegetarian. Skylger Pikant is fantastic as a cube with a sturdy craft beer or a good glass of red wine, but also delicious on a slice of dark bread.
