Boerenklass Gouda 12 months
Farmhouse Product
Aged for a minimum of 12 months. During the first weeks of this aging process, the Gouda is regularly turned in order to guarantee the beautiful uniformity of its shape. After 8 weeks, it is plasticised for the first time, an essential step for any type of traditional Gouda. This protection is then regularly and extensively washed to remove any impurities that could be found on the plastic covering. In total, Herman and Bep Hoogendoorn’s gouda is plasticized 3 to 4 times. On tasting, you discover a very milky, buttery flavour, then when you get to the centre of the cheese, it becomes fondant on the tongue. You can detect the salt crystals incorporated into the cheese, bringing a crispy effect that perfectly contrasts the creaminess of the cheese. With a long-lasting flavour, this cheese has a taste you will want to experience again and again.
- Unpasteurised Cow's milk
- Holland, The Netherlands
We recommend the following quantities per person:
For an after dinner cheese board, 30g to 50g per cheese per person is generally enough and should not leave you with much leftover. If you are planning to have a big table and / or want some cheese to be carried over a few days ,we recommend 60 to 80g per cheese per person.
The number of cheeses is up too you (i say the more the better!) but to achieve a good selection from textures, Strenghs & different milks, 4 to 6 cheeses are recommended.
The average Cheese Weight we recommend:
2 to 4 Guests: 125 to 150g per cheese
6 to 8 Guests: 200 to 250g per Cheese
10 to 12 Guests: 300 to 350g per Cheese
