Celebrating National Cheese Day is easy and fun! You can start the day by incorporating a brie into your breakfast sandwich or adding grated gouda into your scrambled eggs.

Read on to discover an array of delicious cheese options along with creative ways to enjoy them.

BLUE CHEESE Blue cheese is classified as any cheese with marbled veins of blue or blue-green mold. In todays blue cheese making, Penicillium roqueforti mold is added to the cheese production. To ensure even distribution of mold through-out the cheese, oxygen is inserted through the surface of the cheese by thin needles or skewers. Over time, the blue mold matures in the air tunnels which forms the distinctive marbled blue look. Due to its unique nature, blue cheese has a pungent, salty and tangy flavor that distinguishes it from other cheeses. Made using milk from local cattle, Castello Traditional Danish Blue comforts with a creamy profile of intricate flavors and a

smooth texture. Native to blue mold cheeses, the opening is initially soft with flavors intensifying as it lingers. Pair with fresh pear, citrus fruit and walnuts. DK-006 | 1x6lb | $5.99/LB

Hard cheeses are dense, savory and firm. Similar to semi-hard cheese, after being pressed to remove moisture, hard cheese will either be brined or coated in wax. Hard cheeses can be aged anywhere from between 2 to 36 months. Due to its longer aging process and lack of moisture, hard cheese is the firmest in comparison to other cheese. In texture, aged hard cheeses are grainy and crumbly. By wedding rich, creamy cheese to the berry and plum notes of Merlot, Sartori created a marriage of flavors destined to make your taste buds say, “I do.” On that note, if you pair toasted walnuts, thin slices of prosciutto and semisweet chocolates for dessert — the honeymoon never has to end. US-893 | 12x5.3oz | $38.99/CS

HARD CHEESE

F r e sh Ch eese Fresh Cheese is cheese in its youngest form. Crafted from fresh curds, fresh cheese is not ripened or aged, giving it a clean and creamy flavor. With its high moisture content, fresh cheese is soft, spreadable and excellent for cooking. The Vermont Creamery story begins with this mild fresh goats' milk cheese. Crumble it on salads, sprinkle on flat-breads or spread on sandwiches. It can also be used as a filling for ravioli, burgers or quiche. US-976 | 12x4oz | $28.99/CS JANUARY 2022 | 21

WASH RIND CHEESE Washed rind cheeses are bathed or washed with a brine, a mixuture of salt and water, or with other liquids such as beer or wine too. Brining the cheese encourages the growth of bacteria, Brevibacterium linens, on the surface which gives it and orange and pink hue color that is slightly sticky and darkens with age. Raclette is a semi-soft, uncooked pressed cheese salted with brine made with cow's milk. Its mild and soft paste makes it the perfect cheese to be melted. FR-530 | 1x7lb | $6.99/LB

BLOOMY CHEESE Bloomy rind is a surface-ripened cheese. This cheese earned its name from its edible white rind. During the cheese making process, cheesemakers coat and edible mold called Penicillium camemberti, a yeast like fungus across the exterior of the ripening cheese. With the presence of humidity, the mold begins to bloom and form a soft rind. The Fromager d’Affinois Le Fromager is a generous, melt in the mouth cheese. Its rich and creamy soft texture releases a fresh and fine taste with a delicate flavor. FR-373 | 2x4.41lb | $79.99/CS JANUARY 2022 | 22

SEMI- S O F T C HEESE Semi-soft cheeses are high in moisture with flavors ranging from mild to pungent. The interior is smooth and creamy with little to no rind. Due to their soft texture and high moisture content, semi-soft cheeses are difficult to shred. Many semi-soft cheeses are perfect for meltingand are best used when making a grilled sandwich. Thistle Hill Stilton with Cranberries is a creamy white stilton blended with sweetened cranberries for the perfect flavor. Multi Award winning cheese from Shirevale Dairy, including a Gold Award at the 2017 International Cheese Awards. Enjoy as a dessert and pair with dark choloclate. almonds or dried fruit. UK-156 | 2x2.2lb | $7.99/LB

SEMI-HARD CHEESE Semi-hard cheeses are characterized by their firm yet slightly spring texture. and dense consistency. During the production process they are pressed to remove moisture. While some semi-hard cheeses are washed in a brine, others receive a coating of wax on the surface. Generally, semi-hard cheeses age anywhere between 1 month to a year. Sweet Fire Mango Jack is a slightly sweet and fruity cheese, spiced with ghost peppers. Enjoy in grilled cheese sandwiches, shredded on flatbreads or tacos!

All Comté cheeses start in the pastures of the Haut Jura, where bountiful nature yields hundreds of varieties of flowers that find their way into the cow’s milk. The milk is collected in dairies where the cheese maker produces cheese rounds. These cheese rounds are then taken to the master cheese maker for maturing. During maturing, the master cheesemaker tests each Comté with a cheese borer to assess its maturity and texture. This regular testing and observation are essential for transferring the rounds of cheese to the appropriate maturing cellars and obtaining the best flavors. The rounds are then kept in a fermentation cellar; this is when the living organisms inside and outside the cheese flourish most. The final stages of the maturing process take place in a slow maturing cellar and a storage cellar, when the rounds of cheese undergo most of their physical changes. The result of these special maturing techniques at the Fort des Rousses, give the Comté cheeses a nice creamy texture and a strong and refined combination of aromas that linger in the mouth.

Through a key encounter between Guilloteau and scientists for the French National Institute for Agricultural Research (INRA), the creation of the special industrial process called ultrafiltration was developed and successfully patented in 1969. Guilloteau then went on to start his own company, Fromagerie Guilloteau in 1981 with a focus on producing an expanding line of top-quality cheeses made exclusively with the ultrafiltration process.

SAINT ANGEL FR-889 St. Angel Triple Creme Red Label | 2x1.7lb | $9.99/LB BUCHE DU VIVAROIS FR-954 Bucheron Goat Log Du Vivarois | 1x2lb | $20.99/CS Buche du Vivarois has an ivory-colored paste surrounded by a bloomy white rind. The interior is chalky and dense, but it is met with a thin layer of creamy cheese just below the rind that creates a sense of balance. The flavor is mildly goat-y when it is young, and develops a sharper and more goat-like flavor as it ages.

Ultrafiltration is a special industrial process in which milk is filtered through a sieve to partially eliminate small molecules such as water, lactose and mineral salts. The mineral salts that are maintained during this process make Fromager d’Affinois (and all Guilloteau cheeses) two to four times richer in calcium than a Brie or Camembert cheese. The Fromager d’Affinois line of cheeses offer silky, smooth, mouth-coating creaminess and a decadently rich, buttery taste. Made with pasteurized cows’ milk and available in a variety of flavors using only the freshest ingredients, there is a d’Affinois for everyone to adore. At just five inches square, Saint Angel is a cows’ milk triple cream cheese with incredibly smooth texture and big, buttery flavors that will not go unnoticed. For those craving an even creamier bite, Saint Angel cheeses are the perfect match. With delicate, white bloomy rinds and base flavors of sweet cream and mild mushrooms, each delights with every bite, and becomes even more rich and robust with age.
