Cheese: Abondance
Country: France
Type: Cow, raw
Horray, a new Pope! Congratulations to the Catholic world on the appointment of Pope Francis.
So this week I had the fine staff at Janice Beaton's pick me something random, and they handed me a 100grams of Abondance. Abondance is sort of like a strong scented havarti. Creamy, semi-firm, and buttery in texture. The rind is slightly crunchy, and a wee bit bitter. Over all for a cheese with a moderate amount of aroma to it the flavour is quite mild. A nice first step on the road to limburger.
