Boulette de Cambrai

Boulette de Cambrai is a French cheese originating from the region of Nord-pas-de-Calais, and it is named after the city of Cambrai, near the Belgian border. This rindless cheese is made with cow's milk and flavored with chives, parsley, and tarragon.


It is shaped into small balls and has a milky, herbal, slightly sweet flavor. Boulette de Cambrai is always consumed fresh, and if allowed to age for too long, it will develop a bitter flavor. It is recommended to spread it on crusty bread and pair it with light and fruity red wines.
