There’s More to Swiss Cheese than You Think: Emmi Roth USA Fills in the Holes
(February 11, 2014 – Orangeburg, NY): To a majority of Americans, “Swiss cheese” is just the cheese at the deli counter with the holes in it. It’s become a very generalized term in the US, but there are other fantastic cheeses that also fall into the Swiss category. In Switzerland, cheesemaking has been a way of life for centuries, and there are many varieties with uniquely different taste profiles derived from the regions and methods used to craft each one. The official name for the Swiss cheese with holes is Emmentaler, but having holes does not even guarantee a cheese is Swiss. Jarlsberg,
