Duddleswell cheese

From WikiMD's Wellnesspedia

Duddleswell Cheese is a type of cheese that originates from the United Kingdom. It is named after the village of Duddleswell, located in the county of East Sussex.

History[edit | edit source]

The cheese is produced by the High Weald Dairy, a family-run business that has been in operation since the 1980s. The dairy is located in the Ashdown Forest, an area of outstanding natural beauty and the inspiration for the setting of A.A. Milne's Winnie the Pooh stories.

Production[edit | edit source]

Duddleswell Cheese is a hard, sheep's milk cheese. The milk used in its production is sourced from the dairy's own flock of Friesland sheep, a breed known for its high milk yield. The cheese is made using traditional methods, including hand-pressing and maturing in cloth for a minimum of five months. This process gives the cheese its distinctive flavour and texture.

Characteristics[edit | edit source]

Duddleswell Cheese has a firm, slightly crumbly texture and a rich, full-bodied flavour. It is characterised by its nutty undertones and a hint of caramel sweetness. The cheese has a natural, edible rind that develops during the maturing process. It is typically sold in wheels of varying sizes, from small individual portions to larger wheels for catering purposes.

Uses[edit | edit source]

Duddleswell Cheese is versatile and can be used in a variety of dishes. It is excellent in cheese platters, sandwiches, and salads. It also melts well, making it a good choice for cooking, particularly in dishes such as lasagna, macaroni and cheese, and cheese fondue.

Awards[edit | edit source]

Duddleswell Cheese has won several awards for its quality and flavour, including gold at the British Cheese Awards and silver at the World Cheese Awards.
