Mahon Wedge
Mahon is soft to hard cheese in texture. The flavor is buttery, slightly sharp, salty in taste. During maturation, the cheese is hand rubbed with butter/paprika or oil. It is a very versatile cheese that appeals to a variety of palates. A wonderful semi-hard cheese, shaped like a pillow, coming from the Island of Menorca in Spain. This version is young, aged for about 3 months, with a smooth and supple texture and a buttery and salty flavor and a sweet and fruit aroma. Spaniards call this a table cheese, which means that you can eat it with almost anything; it's that versatile. Thinly sliced on a cheese plate or with a drizzle of olive oil for a snack. Mahon is especially good with fruits and nuts. Try it in salad or melted over grilled vegetables. Like so many other table cheeses, Mahon does wonders over pasta and rice.
