Gołka

Traditionally associated with the region of Silesia, gołka is a smoked Polish cheese that is exclusively made with cow’s milk. It is characterized by its light yellow color, and before it is smoked, it is placed in carved wooden molds that form its typical cylindrical shape and provide a decorative pattern on the rind.

With its delicate taste, smoky flavor, and soft texture, gołka is best paired with fruit preserves and bread.
