TYPES OF EMMENTAL
There are different types of Emmental:
- Swiss Emmental: this type is the most famous and widespread, and has also been the first to appear on the market. In fact, the name ‘Emmental’ comes from its area of origin, the Emmental Valley in the canton of Berne, located in the central Alps. It comes in three varieties: mature, ripe and mild. Its moulds are often very large, ranging from 80 to 100 kg.
- French Emmental: is smaller in size than the previous one and includes three kinds: de Savoie (PGI), Est-Central (PGI) and Gran Cru.
Bavarian Emmental or Emmentaler: produced in Germany and processed in a very similar way to Swiss Emmental. - Finnish Emmental: this cheese is basically for export and is very similar to Bavarian Emmental.
HOW TO ENJOY IT BEST
Emmental is a very versatile cheese, suitable for many different types of cooking. Thanks to its sweet and aromatic taste, it combines perfectly with cherry tomatoes, pears and nuts. it is perfect to eat alone, in cubes or to prepare a richer appetiser with different cured meats, some bread or taralli. It is also great to flavour soups, meat or baked vegetables au gratin. Finally, it is the ingredient par excellence to make a tasty traditional fondue.
HOW TO PAIR IT
We recommend pairing this cheese with an aromatic, medium-structured white wine such as Trentino Pinot Grigio DOC.
