Valençay Cheese by Harvey & Brockless 220g
Brand: Harvey & Brockless
According to legend, this soft, nutty goats' cheese
used to be made in the shape of a perfect pyramid. But when
Napoleon stopped off at Valençay castle on his return from an
unsuccessful expedition in Egypt, he was so enraged by the shape of
the cheese that he chopped off the pointed top with his sword.
Third generation family business Jacquin makes the cheese using raw
milk, natural rennet and a slow set for the curds, which takes up
to 36 hours.
