                                          FRESH CHEESE
Fresh cheese is exactly that, a fresh cheese that is very soft to soft, moist, and normally has a shorter shelf life than most of the soft cheese family. It typically is somewhat tart, because fresh cheese does not goe through any type of cooking or ripening ripening process and it's consistency varies from thick and creamy like a mascarpone or cream cheese, to a rather more curdly and moister type such as cottage and farmer curd cheese.

The  many cheeses fall into this category, from all milk types and family kinds such as blue or cheddar. This category also includes all the Brie and Camembert [the bloomy rind type] cheeses. Because of mold [the good kind] that has been applied to the exterior, a process of ripening occurs from the outside in for this family of cheese. The most noted of course are brie and camembert, and St. Andre are popular.  The have a lovely soft bloomy white mold on the rind that is completely edible, that covers the special soft creamy butter type interior.  View all Soft Cheeses
