Opened 4 month old " appenzeller"
« on: February 05, 2015, 09:05:57 PM »
Just wanted to share my excitement . This wheel of cheese was one I referenced in a previous post having trouble with the rind getting slimy and moldy. From lots of suggestions I got t under control let t sit a few weeks, and cut it open.
I love the diversity of colorful microflora on the rind as well as the small eye formation . It really tastes great!

   If that tastes as good as it looks----you deserve a cheese----a heck it looks good enough for a cheese, regardless :)

I would describe the taste as subtle, nutty, with a little funky linensy taste . Mild for sure but still different enough from anything else. Very very creamy. It's full fall raw jersey milk.
I might try aging another wheel of this longer to see what happens- worried about it being full fat though don't want to age it too long and get rancid flavors

ä guätä schwiizer Chäs!

Why that looks like a real Swiss cheese, good job. The rind has just the right appearance, which is not an easy task!
But i'll give you only this one critique, eye formation is considered a flaw for Appenzeller, but as minimal as it is I think the cheese would still pass grade :)
