Ridder | Local Cheese From Norway, Northern Europe | TasteAtlas

Ridder

Ridder is a traditional cheese made from cow's milk. It was invented by a Swedish cheesemaker, Sven Fenelius. The cheese has a pliable and creamy texture and its rind is washed and sticky. Ridder matures for almost 3 months, during which it develops sweet, buttery, and slightly nutty flavors.


It's recommended to pair it with light and fruity wines and serve it with fruit or crackers. Interestingly, the name Ridder means knight in Norwegian.
