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.
Applications: 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.
How to Store and Share: Wrap gruyere cheese in plastic wrap or wax paper. In its original packaging (unopened) it should last 1-2 months in the fridge, 3-4 weeks if it has been opened and rewrapped.
Origin: Fribourg, Switzerland
Specifications: Le Gruyere Premier Cru is sold by the 5lb king cut (no rind included). There are 2 cuts included per order, totaling 10lbs of cheese.
