Wedding gift - half a ton of Cheddar cheese!

Cheddar is a type of hard English cheese. The beginning of its production dates back to the 12th century. It got its name, like many European cheeses, from the place of preparation - the village of the same name in Somerset County. This Englishman has a sharp taste with nutty notes and slight sourness. The cheese mass is elastic, mostly cream-colored, but can also be yellow or orange. In its production, only natural dye annatto is used. The heads of the product reach a mass of 37-40 kilograms, but in 1840 it was made as a wedding gift to Queen Victoria weighing about half a ton!

When making Cheddar, pasteurized, raw milk is also used. Moreover, today it is customary to make this product exclusively from cow’s milk, but in those distant times of its first preparation it was made from goat’s or sheep’s milk. The production process is simple: the milk is sour, the cheese mass is placed in a cloth to allow the whey to completely drain, and then the product matures from three months to several years, which is, in principle, very rare.

Depending on this aging time, Cheddar is divided into several varieties: ranging from sophistication with a delicate creamy taste to sharp and sharp.
