The history of Feta cheese, though often under debate, has been traced to the Balkan Peninsula in modern-day Bulgaria. Bulgarian Feta is made from pure sheep’s milk from ewes that graze in the Rhodope Mountains and features a stark white color and slightly salty flavor with a refreshing, tangy finish. Stemming from the Italian word for slice, or “fetta,” this feta cheese is formed into blocks and sliced, making it perfect for a drizzle of olive oil, or crumbed into your favorite dishes.

Normally, the color of Cheddar ranges from white to pale yellow. Some Cheddars, however, have a color added, giving the cheese a yellow-orange color. Cheddar is always made from cow`s milk and has a slightly crumbly texture if properly cured. If the cheese is too young, the texture is smooth. Cheddar gets a sharper taste the longer it matures.

To retain the moisture and preserve the texture of Maytag Blue Cheese, keep it in the original foil and store in a plastic bag in the refrigerator. The cheese may also be kept in the refrigerator in a covered container, such as our glass cheese preserver. Because our cheese is made from all-natural ingredients and contains no preservatives, it may develop a natural bloomy rind.

Hailing from Italy, mozzarella is a mild, white fresh cheese thats made by the special pasta filata process, whereby the curd is dipped into hot whey, then stretched to the desired consistency. At one time, mozzarella was made only from the milk of water buffaloes. Today, however, the majority of it is made with cows milk. Fresh Mozzarella is not cured in brine or aged like the low-moisture Mozzarella more familiar to most of us. The moist, sweet, tender, milky, nutty and buttery flavor, and springy, yielding texture, is unlike that of any other dairy product. The different sizes of fresh mozzarella relate best to the sizes of fresh tomatoes since it naturally is a gastronomical match made in heaven. Fresh mozzarella is always packed in water.` Its generally made from whole milk and has a much softer texture and a sweet, delicate flavor. Its excellent simply spread on bread with salt, pepper and a little olive oil.

2nd PLACE RINDLESS BLUES – AMERICAN CHEESE SOCIETY AWARDS 2023

The secret to Point Reyes Original Blue lies in the unique combination of three ingredients: Grade A raw milk from a closed herd of Holstein cows that graze on the certified organic, green pastured hills overlooking Tomales Bay. The coastal fog. And the salty Pacific breezes. Time influences the recipe, too. Original Blue is made within hours of milking, and then ages for a minimum of six months. The result? A creamier style, full-flavored blue cheese.
