Waitrose Emmental is a Swiss-style cheese made from cow's milk with classic holes that signify quality maturation. This 250g block is ideal for slicing into sandwiches or melting over your favourite dishes.
Three types of cultures are needed to prepare Emmental. Historically, the holes were a sign of imperfection, and until modern times, cheese makers would try to avoid them. Nowadays, however, eye formation is valued as a sign of maturation and quality. Emmental cheese is made from cow's milk. About 12 litres of milk are needed to make 1 kg of cheese.
