Gammelost or
Gamalost is a blue cheese from Norway and uses raw goat milk. The name of this
cheese has the meaning of "old cheese" because the skin of this
cheese is overgrown by a brownish-green fungus so the Gammelost cheese looks
old.
In order for mushrooms on
this cheese to develop well then this cheese is traditionally wrapped with
gin-soaked straw and juniper berry. The cheese is very sharp and aromatic. The
color of the cheese is brownish yellow and there are irregular blue shades.
The shape of the Gammelost
cheese is generally like a drum. When the cheese is still young, the texture is
quite soft but after this cheese matured into hard texture. This cheese has a
low fat content and is suitable to be served after dinner with aquavit or gin.
