Edelpilz

Edelpilz is a German blue cheese that's often compared with Danish Blue Cheese (Danablu). The cheese is made from cow's milk and has a fat content of 22%. The rind is soft, and underneath it the texture is semi-soft and creamy.

The aromas and flavors are strong, savory, and slightly spicy. Edelpilz is great for melting over au gratin dishes or as a stuffing for fish, meat, and vegetables, as well as sauces and dressings. It's recommended to pair it with robust red wines such as Dornfelder or white wines with residual sweetness such as Pinot Gris from Alsace.
