Emmental or Emmenthaler: EM-awn-TAHL
It is characterized by the large holes that are caused by non-removed carbon dioxide bubbles during production.
This cheese comes in multiple varieties throughout Switzerland and the rest of the world.
The two most popular Swiss varieties are the AOC and Premier Cru, both of which consist of different aging periods and techniques.
Emmentaler cheese is partially skimmed, low sodium-50mg per oz, unpasteurized cow's milk.
It is relatively firm and has a natural rind.
It is typically yellowish-tan in color and has a mild, nutty, fruity flavor.
Try it with sliced tomatoes on a reuben sandwich, in a French onion soup, or in a cheddar fondue.
If you're looking to pair this with a wine, try a red wine that's light and fruity.
