Old North Holland cheese
The basis of this special North Holland regional product is of course the milk of these cheeses. Our North Holland cheeses owe their flavour to the vast North Holland polders. The soil in this region is naturally slightly salty and this produces pasture milk that is naturally deliciously creamy.
North Holland cheeses have been declared a protected regional product by the EU. This means that the cows giving the milk must graze in North Holland pastures, the cheese factory must be in North Holland and the cheese must be made according to traditional recipes.
Traditional ripening
In our own traditional maturing house, the cheeses are aged on wooden boards. Old North Holland cheeses are given at least 1 year to mature.
During this time, the cheese is given time to develop a delicious characteristic flavour without losing its creaminess Our cheeses are turned by hand with some regularity. This ensures that the cheese is top quality and can mature evenly.
Processing aged North Holland cheese
Old North Holland cheese is still wonderfully creamy and has a particularly firm taste. Thanks to the small ripening crystals, you get an extra taste experience. Delicious on sandwiches, but also great with a drink or on the go.
Our North Holland aged cheeses are also perfect for use in various hot dishes. Try making a traditional Dutch stew with this delicious old cheese.
