Wood River Creamery Northwoods Cheddar Mature Full Flavored Cheddar 8oz
Wood River Creamery Northwoods Cheddar Mature Full Flavored Cheddar is a robust, aged cheddar that leans into a classic cheddar style for a sharp, full-bodied cheese with a strong flavor and a firm texture.
Flavor:
-
Rich & Bold: As a mature cheddar, it delivers a pronounced sharpness and depth of flavor that is more complex and assertive than what is found in a young or mild cheddar.
-
Nutty & Savory: Has the creamy and slightly nutty flavor that Wood River’s cheeses are known for.
Texture:
-
Firm & Dense: As an aged cheddar, it is firm and slices cleanly.
-
Slight Crystallization: May have small crunchy crystals (calcium lactate or tyrosine) — a common and delicious trait of well-aged cheddars.
Recommended Uses:
-
Snacking: Cubed or sliced on cheese boards paired with apples, pears, or nuts.
-
Cooking: Adds bold cheddar flavor to mac and cheese, gratins, and savory bakes.
-
Sandwiches: Strong enough to shine in grilled cheese or stacked with cured meats.
Ingredients: Cultured Pasteurized Milk, Salt, Annatto (Vegetable color), Enzymes. Contains: Milk.
