Pronounced 'EE-dum', this workhorse cheese is classically cheesy and versatile. An iconic product of the Netherlands, Edam is usually spotted as a bright red wax-coated sphere. It can also be made into a loaf shape. Inside the wax is a young gouda-type cheese. Very mild but satisfying, this cheese is ideal for cheese and crackers, or melting over everyday dishes. A great fridge-staple for all kinds of applications.
We cut and pack this cheese in pieces of 9 ounces and you can purchase an entire loaf that weighs approximately 5.5 pounds.
Ingredients:pasteurized milk, salt, starter culture, rennet, annatto (natural color).
