People associate Swiss cheese with Emmentaler, a cheese covered in holes. Tomme Fleurette, my favorite Swiss cheese, defies the image of the stereotypical Swiss cheese. Firstly, it has a soft delicate texture without the holes characteristic of Emmentaler. Its incredibly rich smooth creamy texture tastes fresh and milky. Its soft paste slowly melts on your palate and leaves you wanting more.
Tomme Fleurette is a raw cow's milk cheese modeled after Tomme Vaudoise. Both cheeses come from the canton of Vaud . Tomme Fleurette is handmade by Michel Beroud in the town of Rougement. Beroud ages the cheese in damp ripening caves. The damp caves allow the cheese to maintain a high level of moisture and to develop its natural pristine rind.
All you need is a warm fresh piece of whole grain bread to accompany this cheese. You can also enjoy Tomme Fleurette with a rose hip jam. Formaggio Kitchen recommends its exquisite rose hip jam from the Franche-Comté. Suggestions on where to purchase this cheese can be found after the jump.
