Specialty Cheeses

A European tradition, now made here in America, Edam adds subtle flavor to almost everything it touches. This cheese does not spoil easily and, with its signature red wax coating, travels very well. Edam is the kind of cheese that everyone loves – it has a nutty flavor and is just slightly salty. It also has a relatively low fat content, which gives it a softer texture than cheeses such as cheddar. As it ages, Edam’s flavor becomes sharper and its texture becomes firmer, which some people prefer. Castello Edam is perfect for family meals, casseroles, pasta and burgers.
