Tine Edamer Vellagret Edam Well-Aged Cheese, 850g
Tine Edamer Vellagret Edam Well-Aged Cheese is a Norwegian-produced semi-hard cheese inspired by the traditional Dutch Edam variety, manufactured by TINE, Norway’s leading dairy cooperative. This 850g wheel is aged for a minimum of 12 months, resulting in a more mature and intensified flavor profile compared to younger Edam cheeses.
It features a firm texture that’s slightly denser than standard Edam, with a taste that’s full-bodied, clean, sour, aromatic, and notably saltier and more tangy than similar Norwegian cheeses like Norvegia. The aging process enhances its nutty undertones while maintaining a creamy mouthfeel, making it less mild than fresh Edam but not as sharp as very old Goudas.
This cheese is versatile in the kitchen—ideal as a topping on bread or crackers, grated into gratins and sauces, melted on pizza, or served on a cheese board. In Norway, it’s considered the quintessential Christmas cheese, often enjoyed during holiday meals for its robust yet approachable flavor.
Ingredients include pasteurized cow’s milk, acid culture, salt, microbial rennet, acidity regulator (calcium chloride), and preservative (sodium nitrate). It’s palm oil-free, non-vegan, and suitable for vegetarians. Allergens: Contains milk.
