About Cheese, cheshire
Cheshire is one of England's oldest named cheeses, and while it rarely gets the attention cheddar does, it holds its own. The texture is crumbly and slightly moist, the flavor mildly salty and tangy, with a faintly acidic finish that sets it apart from smoother cow's milk cheeses. Like most full-fat aged cheeses, it sits high in fat and delivers a reasonable amount of protein. It crumbles well over salads and baked potatoes, and it partners nicely with apple slices or crusty bread.
