Our deli has the most delightful spiced gouda! I buy it by the slice
for adding spark to sandwiches and by the chunk for substituting in
other cooked dishes. I recently used some in homemade mac and cheese.
The flavour was really nice!

I gotta say. I am not a fan of spiced or flavoured cheeses. I have been
known to buy the odd bit of fruit flavoured cream cheese, dill Havarti and
party packs of those little cubes of Gruyere. having a lactose
intolerance I don't eat a heck of a lot of cheese but I do enjoy it once in
a while. I avoid cheap cheese. Living on a pension and buying cheese for
my wife, who loves cheese and eats it every day, I give myself credit for
buying her a variety of good quality cheeses. Rather than buying spiced or
flavoured cheeses, I opt for a variety of good cheese. Last week's
groceries included a half pound each of Balderson's Old Cheddar, Danish
Fontina and Edam. The way I figure it is that if you get good quality
cheese you don't need to dress it up with spices, herbs and fruit.

I used some smoked Gouda to make quesedillas the other night. They
turned out very well. What kind of spices did they add to the Gouda you
bought ?

I'm not really sure Dean. I'm thinking it is caraway a that's the
flavour I'm getting and the visible seeds appear to be caraway. Yet
there is something else there too that I just can't put my finger on and
unlike the seeds is not readily visible. They don't have this cheese
all the time either which is a pity because it is quite good. I'm going
to ask about the cheese my next trip to the deli. I'd like to see them
carry it all the time.

In Holland, there are two piced Goudas that are traditional. One with
cloves, one with "komijn" - i think the proeper translation for that is
caraway. Or cumin. Theere seem to be some :"illogical" translations
around for certain spices.

If that helps at al...

What I usually find here in SW Ontario is spiced Gouda with cumin seed. It's
very good.

I've tried gouda with stinging nettle and gouda with olives and sundried
tomatoes. Those are quite good. Different than the ammonium stenching
Extra aged danish swiss style cheese I eat.
