Munster
What is Munster Cheese?
Munster AOC, also known as Munster-géromé or Minschterkaas, is a soft cheese made using unpasteurized cow's milk in the Vosges mountains of Alsace, France. Its name is derived from the Alsace town of Munster, where the cheese was historically preserved and matured in the cellars of Vosgian abbeys and monasteries. This washed-rind cheese is rubbed with brine for 2 to 3 months, resulting in a distinctive rich orange-coloured rind.
This cheese presents a delightful combination of sweetness and savoury notes, with a prolonged spicy taste. Traditionally, Munster is served alongside boiled potatoes, cumin seeds, and a glass of wine.
