What is Colby cheese?
Colby Cheese is a semi-hard cheese of cow's milk originally in the United States, although it is also produced in other regions of the world. Cheese is often compared to Chedar cheese, because both are usually colored to look orange or creamy yellow, although both cheeses taste very different. As with most cheeses produced in the United States, Colby cheese is made of pasteurized milk and the raw milk version is usually not available for commercial sale due to short aging. Many grocery stores all over the United States sell Colby cheese and often appear for people outside North America in large grocery stores or imports. Steinwand named the cheese for the city in which the family built their first dairy products, and Colby, Wisconsin continues to celebrate Colby Cheese today. As Wisconsin Cheese attracted the eyes of the public, Colby has also become quite popular. It is considered one of the first truly American cheeses because it was developed by an American in SPOJeny states and is not intended to imitate European cheese.
The taste of Colby cheese is often compared with cheddar, but the cheese is much milder and creamy. Colby also has a high moisture content and tends to be much softer than cheddar. The cheese is produced with a wash curd and is not subjected to Čedar cheese. Washing reduces the acid content, so after completing the Colby cheese is less spicy.
gentle, mild cheese does not age well, tends to be cracked and dry. It should be eaten as young as possible, making it an excellent selection of cheese for commercial production, because dairies do not have to invest in a large aging for finished cheeses. A certain high quasist Lita Colby can be aged, but most cheese is sent directly to the market.
