Made with added cream


A deliciously smooth and rich Swiss mountain cheese, made with added cream. Nidel is a local word meaning cream, so Nidelchas really is a cream cheese. Buttery and herby with a rich texture, it's one to try.

After crossing the Surenen pass during my attempt at the Swiss Alpine Pass Route, I came upon a sign saying "Alp Käse". Not being the type of person who can walk past cheese, (especially after walking 8 hours that day), I stopped to make a purchase and have a look around the dairy. The Raclette that we ate later that night when we returned to Zürich took me by surprise. Here was a cheese that was delicate, with the flavours of Alpine grasses bursting through and a milky sweetness that spoke of the environment of where it came from.
