Creamy English Cheddar is folded with Balsamic Vinegar of Modena and sweet onion for a rich, mellow tang in every bite.
Hand-sealed in bright red wax, this 5.3-oz star brings instant holiday sparkle to any cheese board.
It’s a stocking stuffer, hostess gift, and party centerpiece all in one small package.
Some cheeses earn a spot on the holiday table for their flavor. This one earns it for flavor and looks. Somerdale’s Balsamic Onion Cheddar starts with a creamy English Cheddar, then folds in Balsamic Vinegar of Modena and sweet onion for a flavor that tastes like the best part of a French onion soup or a slow-cooked onion jam, only richer. The result is mellow and savory with a gentle sweetness that keeps you reaching for one more piece.
Each 5.3-oz cheese is shaped into a star and sealed in glossy red wax, so it arrives looking every bit as festive as it tastes. Set it in the center of your holiday cheese board, tuck it into a stocking, or bring it along as a hostess gift that will get opened (and enjoyed) the same night.
This item is perishable and should arrive within 2 days of shipment from our headquarters in Dayton, Ohio. Depending on where this item is headed, it may require expedited shipping.
Take the cheese out of the refrigerator 30 to 45 minutes before serving so its creamy texture and balsamic sweetness can fully open up. Peel away the red wax (it’s decorative and not edible), then slice the star into wedges from the center out so every guest gets a point. Pair it with water crackers, crisp apple or pear slices, fig jam, toasted walnuts, and sliced salami or prosciutto. It’s also wonderful melted into grilled cheese, tucked into a roast beef sandwich, or crumbled over a burger. For drinks, try a Merlot, Zinfandel, or Pinot Noir, a malty brown ale, or a dry hard cider.
Keep refrigerated at 35°F to 40°F. Leave the wax seal intact until you’re ready to serve, since it protects the cheese and keeps it fresh. Once cut, wrap any leftover cheese in cheese paper or parchment, then loosely in plastic wrap, and enjoy within one to two weeks. Check the package for the best-by date.
