Comté cheese
Comté is a well-known French mountain cheese, from the Jura, from Franche Comté. This delicious French cheese has been protected with the AOP label since 1958. This does have a number of conditions that the cheese must meet.
Among other things, only raw milk from the Jura mountains may be used. The cows allowed to provide this milk must come from the Montbéliard, French Simmental or a cross between these two breeds.
In addition, the cows eat only grass, herbs and flowers. This results in a piquant cheese with delicious nutty notes.
Serving Comté
Comté is a delicious piece of cheese to eat at lunch. In addition, the unique flavour of this French cheese also lends itself perfectly to being incorporated into various hot dishes. Think for example of a savoury pie, fondue or a soufflé. The possibilities are endless.
Of course, it is also possible to serve this special cheese on a cheeseboard. A white dry wine is delicious in combination with a piece of Comté cheese. Think for example of Chardonnay or a Sauvignon Blanc.
