CHAMPIGNON MUSHROOM
The one-of-a-kind CHAMPIGNON Mushroom is truly a fan favorite. This soft-ripened cheese is flecked with fine champignon mushrooms that add a mild but refined earthy mushroom flavor. Called white or button mushrooms in the US, champignon mushrooms are hand-picked in Germany at the optimum time to ensure the very best quality and mushroom flavor. Warm this cheese to room temperature for a buttery soft & earthy delight.
Enjoying Champignon Mushroom
WHAT TO EXPECT:
White, bloomy edible exterior. Creamy yellow-white soft interior with fine flecks of brown champignon mushroom throughout.
PAIRINGS:
Pair it with a white wine or champagne. Serve it at room temperature with baguette, crudité, charcuterie. Excellent topping for a pizza or over chicken breast or asparagus.
LACTOSE FREE, GLUTEN FREE, & VEGETARIAN
CHAMPIGNON is lactose-free due to the natural maturation process during cheese-making. Our cheeses are all naturally gluten-free and because we use microbial rennet, they are 100% vegetarian-friendly.
WHAT DOES “SOFT-RIPENED” MEAN?
A soft-ripened cheese is a cheese that is aged from the outside in. The mold and cultures that are added to the cheese during the cheese-making process form a bloomy exterior on the outside and creamy interior as the cheese ages.
ONLY THE VERY BEST MILK
All cheeses made by our supplier Käserei Champignon are made using pasteurized and rBST-free milk from cows in the alpine region of Bavaria, Germany. We promise fresh quality milk in every ounce of cheese.
