Description

Irish rustic cheese is a type of artisanal cheese originating from Ireland, known for its intense flavor and firm yet slightly grainy texture. This cheese is traditionally made with unpasteurized cow's milk, which gives it a unique character and a deep aroma, making it ideal for adding a distinctive touch to a wide variety of recipes.

Its aging process varies, generally between 3 to 6 months, allowing it to develop a natural rind and a balanced flavor that is both creamy and slightly tangy. In cooking, Irish rustic cheese is perfect for gratinating, melting in stews, or for accompanying cheese boards and artisanal breads.

From a nutritional standpoint, it is a good source of protein and calcium, although it also has a moderate fat content, so it is recommended to consume it in moderation.

In different Spanish-speaking countries, this cheese may be known simply as Irish artisanal cheese or is also called rustic cheese when one wants to highlight its texture and traditional production method.
