SWEET CLOVER
Available in half wheel (approx. 1.6 lbs.)
|
Flavors: Since this cheese is a relatively small drum of sheeps' milk cheese, the natural rind, although not washed, increases the cheeses' nuttiness. The cheese is cleanly sheepy, with no barnyard off-flavors. Hints of sage and mountain grasses.
Aromas: grassy, tree-bark
Texture: semi-soft
Uses: Could be used in cooking, but it is most often eaten with a fresh fruit and bread.
Make: Gently pasteurized high-quality sheeps' milk is cultured, renneted with vegetarian rennet and curd cut. The curd is shoveled into forms and the forms flipped several times during the day to evenly distribute butterfat and drain whey. Curds knit overnight at room temperature in the forms.
Affinage: New cheeses are taken from the hoops, gently salted and aged for several weeks.
