What is Bergen cheese?
Bergen cheese is a full-fat, semi-hard cheese made from milk. Its firm, sliceable texture works well on a cold plate as well as in cooked dishes.
Enjoy it sliced on bread or crackers, in sandwiches, or as part of a cheese board; it can also be added to toast or melted into simple meals. It has a rich nutritional profile, with substantial protein and fat and very little carbohydrate. For a lighter snack, pair a thin slice with fresh fruit or crunchy vegetables rather than making the cheese the main part of the plate.
