About this item

  • Cut and wrapped by the hands of our cheese experts. Ships expedited in an insulated package to ensure freshness
  • Mimolette is a unique, cave-aged cheese from the Normandy region. In the cellars, and develops its wide range of fruity, nutty flavors. As soon as the boules of Mimolette arrive in their designated cellars, their quality is checked using a very ancient technique of tapping the topside of the cheese with a mallet to make sure there is no fissures in it
  • During aging in the caves, numerous cheese-friendly mites go to work on the outside of the cheese helping aerate and age the paste inside while developing the rind. These microscopic mites are completely harmless to humans and feed off the mold that lives on the rind.
  • To prevent the mites from penetrating the cheese, the Isigny affineurs brush the cheese once a month. Each Mimolette cheese is then classified according to the length of time they are aged in the cellar: young (Jeune is 3 months), semi-old (Demi-Vieille is 6 months), old (Vieille is 12 months), extra mature (Extra Vieille is 18 months), and Grand Reserve (24 months).
  • Mimolette's texture changes from a relatively soft, pressed curd cheese to a hard, flavorful cheese that breaks cleanly when matured. Mimolette is attractive on any cheese plate with its bright orange color that comes from adding natural annatto to the highest quality milk. Highly versatile, Mimolette can be grated or shaved for recipes. Beer pairings include IPAs, Brown Ales, or Belgium style beers

Product Description

French Mimolette, also called "Boule de Lille," dates back to the reign of Louis XIV, who prohibited the import of Dutch cheeses into France. The residents of Flanders (now part of Belgium), the northernmost region of France, had strong cultural ties to Holland (many still speak Dutch as their first language today) and dearly loved the banished Dutch specialties. Their alternatives were to either smuggle in the contraband cheeses or make a go at producing their own - with a French twist, of course! And so, Mimolette was born. Young Mimolette is a semi-hard cheese that has the same texture and spherical shape as Dutch Edam. It is produced in bowling-ball sized, nine-pound spheres with a bright orange-colored interior and orange wax rind. Its taste is gloriously sweet, yet uncommonly tame for a French cheese. Mimolette Jeune is easy to slice for sandwiches, for melting, or for a snack.Made from unpasteurized cow's milk.Photo depicts whole 9 lb. form of cheese.

Great product, a bit similar to an old style American hoop cheese. Really good on sandwiches, egg dishes, or any dish requiring subtle cheesy richness.
