Edam Cheese 7 oz

Heritage:

Edam and Gouda originated in Holland over 800 years ago. The name "Edam" comes from a town of the same name in southern Holland. The village of Gouda shares the same valley. Originally, cheesemakers shaped Edam into balls to roll down the gangplanks into ships for export. Since Edam has a firmer texture than Gouda, it maintained its round shape.

Description:

Edam, made with part-skim milk, has a light, buttery, nutty flavor and smooth, firm texture. Slice for sandwiches; shred in baked dishes; dice in salads and vegetable dishes. Edam is produced in the USA.
