Red cheese

At Zuivelhoeve we would like to take you on a tasty journey into the world of cheese. One of the cheeses that we proudly present is the red mold cheese: a delicacy with a characteristic red rind and a delicious taste.

What is red cheese?

Red mold cheese is a type of cheese in which a red crust with mold develops during the ripening process. This mold not only gives the cheese its characteristic appearance, but also its unique taste. This type of cheese is usually made from cow's milk, but can also be produced from goat's or sheep's milk.

What makes this type of cheese so special is its rich and creamy taste in combination with subtle earthy notes and a slight sourness. During the ripening process, the cheese develops a complex flavor with characteristics of mushrooms, nuts and sometimes even a hint of sweetness. The red rind is a unique feature due to the specific fungi that grow in the moist and slightly acidic environment in which the cheese ripens.

The preparation process of a red mold cheese is an art in itself. It all starts with the curdling of milk, where the solids are carefully separated from the liquid. The curd is then pressed and formed into cheese, after which the ripening process takes effect. During this time, the cheese is treated with love and craftsmanship, turned regularly and cared for with the right molds. This naturally gives the red mold that characteristic red crust. The result of this careful process is a cheese that is rich in taste and aroma.

The healthy aspects of red mold cheese

In addition to its delicious taste, red cheese also offers several health benefits. It is a source of calcium, protein and other essential nutrients. In addition, this type of cheese contains probiotics, which can be beneficial for healthy intestinal flora and digestion.
