Liederkranz cheese
Liederkranz cheese is a type of cheese that originated in the United States. It is a soft, creamy cheese with a strong aroma and flavor, similar to Limburger cheese. Liederkranz cheese is made from cow's milk and has a natural, edible rind.
History[edit | edit source]
Liederkranz cheese was first produced in the late 19th century by a German immigrant in New York City. The cheese was named after the Liederkranz Society, a German singing group in New York. The original recipe was lost in the 1980s, but the cheese was reintroduced in 2010 by the DCI Cheese Company.
Production[edit | edit source]
The production of Liederkranz cheese involves a specific process. The cheese is made from cow's milk, which is pasteurized and then inoculated with a special blend of bacteria. The cheese is then aged for several weeks, during which time it develops its distinctive flavor and aroma.
Characteristics[edit | edit source]
Liederkranz cheese is known for its strong, pungent aroma, which is often compared to that of Limburger cheese. The cheese has a soft, creamy texture and a tangy, robust flavor. It is typically served with bread or crackers, and is often paired with beer or wine.
