Each cheese is approximately 25kg in weight, and comes in a drum-shaped truckle, measuring roughly 35cm in diameter and 25cm high. It is matured in bandages of buttered cheese cloth, which are removed to reveal a tough rind. In fact the rind used to be used for teething babies.About the producer; Greens:
Greens have been in the business of cheesemaking for over 80 years and the Green family is renowned for producing top quality farmhouse Cheddar. Greens even count members of the Royal family amongst their fans.Indeed, each aspect of the cheese-making process has an influence on the cheese's final character. Even the breed of cow is important. More than a third of the Lloyd's herd are Brown Swiss, which, unlike the familiar Friesian, are bred for cheese-making, yielding milk with a high volume of solids.
Three times a week, 2,500 litres of the creamy stuff are pumped into a vat to be converted into around 50 cheeses, each roughly 50lb. "Every stage is vital," says Lloyd, "but what gives cheddar its unique texture is the 'cheddaring' process. This involves cutting the curd into housebrick-sized blocks and piling them on top of one another until they flatten out under their own weight, forcing out excess whey and raising the acidity. The curd is only ready to mill," he confides, "when it has a texture similar to cooked chicken."
After it has been milled (broken down into little chunks), the curd is piled into moulds lined with Egyptian cotton cloth. These are pressed and the newly formed cheeses are then wrapped in clean cloth, sealed with lard and transferred to the maturing room, where their flavour will develop over many months. "In storage," says Lloyd, "cloth-wrapped cheeses exude moisture, losing up to ten per cent of their weight and attaining a firm, satisfying texture.Word Cloud for This Product
