Wensleydale Cheese with Cranberries 8 oz

PASTEURIZED – MICROBIAL RENNET – MICROBIAL RENNET – AGE: 2 MONTHS – COW MILK – United Kingdom

While Wensleydale isn’t always studded with cranberries, Americans have embraced this fruity version of the British cheese for their holiday tables. Maybe it’s because of the cheerful red wax that keeps the interior moist and creamy. Or the tart dried cranberries bringing sweetness to the milky cheese. It’s a holiday classic, ready to bring festive cheer to your dessert spread with fitting accompaniments—cranberry Raincoast Crisps and cranberry orange preserves.

Wensleydale is an English cheese originally produced in Wensleydale, North Yorkshire. It’s now made across the U.K.
The wax wrapper helps the cheese retain moisture in as it ages, making the end product very dense and creamy. The wax should be removed before enjoying.
Wensleydale can range from milky and buttery to more acidic—this one is predominantly sweet thanks to the dried cranberries, with a slight tartness from both the tangy cheese and the fruit.
It works best as a sweet touch on a cheese board or served for dessert.
