Gouda cheese is beloved for its rich, creamy flavor, but cutting it correctly can enhance your experience. Here’s how to cut Gouda cheese properly:
- Choose the Right Knife: Use a cheese knife or a wire cutter for clean slices.
- Chill the Cheese: Refrigerate the Gouda until firm but not hard.
- Remove the Rind: Trim away the waxy rind if present.
- Cut Into Wedges: For round Gouda wheels, slice into wedges like a pie.
- Slice Thinly: For blocks, cut into thin, even slices for optimal flavor release.
