Cheese Description:
|
|
» Baguette Laonnaise «
Traditional, creamery, washed-rind cheese made from cow's milk in industrial city of Laon. It has a shape of loaf or brick with glossy but crusty, orange-brown rind. The cheese was created after WW2. The sticky, ridged, orange-brown rind hides a supple, yet dense interior. As the cheese ages, it develops a very pungent, spicy taste, and a finish that is reminiscent of the farmyard. In the cold fridge the rind may dry out and the cheese will become quite bitter and unpleasant to eat. Affinage takes two months.
