Description
Martel Swiss, with its sweet and mild flavor, adds a hint of nuttiness to any dish, sandwich or quiche. Swiss cheese has become the common term for a cheese style that originated in Switzerland called Emmenthaler. This cheese is best known for its melting capabilities and, of course, its holes. How did Swiss cheese get its holes? A type of propionic acid bacteria consumes the lactic acid during the aging process and gives off carbon dioxide gas—which eventually forms the bubbles, or “eyes,” in the cheese. The Emmenthaler from Switzerland comes in cumbersome 200 lb. Wheels. While these jumbo cheeses are impressive, the modern deli prefers a smaller version that is ready to slice, cube or re-pack. Martel Swiss is similar to Jarlsberg cheese. Made in United States.
