Semi-Hard Cheese

Each country or area has its own semi-hard cheese type like Jarlsberg, Herrgårdsost, Tilsiter, Gouda, Edam, etc.
They are all produced in a similar way, but differ in fat content, moisture, texture, ripening and taste.
The young mild-tasting semi-hard cheese is ideal for melting. Very often, the cheese is sliced to use in sandwiches.
The more matured cheese with stronger taste is popular as snack, cut in small cubes.
