This is a creamy and pleasantly stinky cheese. This Swiss cheese is made mostly in the canton of Appenzell, which is near the Austrian border. It is made from raw cow’s milk and aged for approximately three months. Appenzeller is a pressed, cooked-curd, brushed-rind cheese with occasional pea-size holes. It has a pleasing, smooth texture, but this cheese’s real charm is its fruity tang. Appenzeller makes a great snack with a piece of fruit, and it also melts well. |
