Gruyere is a hard, full bodied, cow’s milk cheese produced in Switzerland and France. Le Gruyere Premier Cru is a specially designated subsection of Swiss gruyere that must be produced in the canton of Fribourg and cave-aged for 14 months prior to being finished. Le Gruyere Premier Cru has won the distinction of best cheese of the world (at the World Cheese Awards in London) in 1992, 2002, and 2005; more times than any other cheese to date.

Storage: Wrap gruyere cheese in plastic wrap or wax paper.

Shelf Life: 1-2 months unopened, 3-4 weeks opened and rewrapped.

Gruyere is excellent for baking, particularly in quiches and cheese puffs. It is also an indispensable ingredient in real fondue. Slice it thin for a truly decadent ham and cheese sandwich. Grate over a slice of baguette and use to top French onion soup.
