Brussels cheese (French: fromage de Bruxelles Dutch: Brusselse kaas) is made from cow's milk and is considered a table cheese that is used for spreading and snacks. In texture it is smooth, with its taste being sharp and citrusy, with strong and salty bite. The cheese is regularly washed and dried over a period of at least three months, and is shaped into rounds or tubs.
Famous quotes containing the word cheese:
“A cheese may disappoint. It may be dull, it may be naive, it may be oversophisticated. Yet it remains cheese, milk’s leap toward immortality.”
—Clifton Fadiman (b. 1904)
