Old Fashioned Hoop Cheddar
Hoop Cheese (also known as Bakers or Red Ring cheese) is a simple, traditional cheese made only from cow's milk, where the whey has been drained out completely and then placed in a round mold called a hoop. Some people call it Red Ring cheese because of the red wax coating. Though sometimes compared to farmer's cheese, it is different because no cream or salt is added to the cheese. Since the cheese is not aged, the texture remains soft and it spoils very fast. Hoop cheese is a mild, slightly salty cheese with a rubbery texture when young which becomes sharp and crumbly if allowed to age. The color of the pate is rich yellow with a subtle nutty flavor. It is an excellent cooking ingredient that is used to give a creamy texture to the dish without changing the flavor or making it stickier. Use it to make grilled sandwiches, macaroni and cheese, or have it with crackers or fruits. Best in Class, First Place in the 2022 World Championship Cheese Contest!
