Cheddar cheese is a widely popular and versatile cheese variety originating from the English village of Cheddar. Known for its rich, creamy texture and distinctive flavor, Cheddar cheese is made from cow's milk and comes in various forms, including mild, sharp, and extra sharp, each with its own intensity of taste. It is characterized by its pale to deep orange hue, often achieved with the use of natural annatto dye. Cheddar cheese is used in numerous culinary applications, such as sandwiches, burgers, macaroni and cheese, and as a topping for various dishes. It also pairs well with fruits, wines, and crackers and is a staple in cheese boards and platters. The versatility and wide range of flavor profiles make Cheddar cheese a beloved choice for both cooking and snacking worldwide.
NZMP Cheddar is manufactured from fresh milk from grass fed cows, sea salt, rennet and our own proprietary starter cultures, to deliver a mild, distinctly New Zealand, cheddar flavour.
