Frequently Asked Questions About Gravier Cheese
What is Gravier cheese?
Gravier cheese is a semi-hard, Swiss-style cheese made from cow’s milk. In Turkey, the name is closely associated with Kars gravyer, a locally made cheese whose flavour and texture develop during aging.
What does Gravier cheese taste like?
Gravier cheese has a savoury, rich flavour that can become mildly nutty as it ages. Its taste is usually more pronounced than that of mild young cheeses, so a small amount can stand out in a dish.
Is Gravier cheese the same as Gruyère?
Not necessarily. Gravier is associated with the Gruyère style, but the name can refer to locally made cheese, including Kars gravyer. Origin, production methods and aging can differ, so the cheeses may not taste or behave exactly alike.
Why does Gravier cheese have holes?
The holes in some Gravier cheese form when bacteria used during cheese aging release carbon dioxide that gets trapped in the cheese. Their size and number vary with the cultures and production conditions; not every wheel has identical holes.
What is a good substitute for Gravier cheese?
Gruyère is often the closest substitute for Gravier cheese because both can have a firm texture and savoury, nutty notes. Emmental can work when you want a milder flavour, while aged cheddar will taste sharper and less similar.
What are the best ways to cook with Gravier cheese?
Gravier cheese works well grated into gratins, baked pasta, soups and savoury tarts. Add it toward the end of cooking when possible, since prolonged high heat can make melted cheese greasy or stringy.
How should you serve Gravier cheese on a cheese board?
Serve Gravier cheese in thin slices or small pieces so its firm texture and full flavour are easy to enjoy. Pair it with bread, apples or pears; letting it lose some of its refrigerator chill before serving helps its aroma come through.
How should Gravier cheese be stored after opening?
Wrap Gravier cheese in cheese paper or waxed paper, then keep it in a closed container in the refrigerator. This helps prevent it from drying out while limiting how much moisture and odour it picks up from other foods.
Can you freeze Gravier cheese?
Yes, Gravier cheese can be frozen, although thawing may make it crumbly and change its texture. Freeze it in portions and use the thawed cheese in cooked dishes, where the texture change is less noticeable.
Is Gravier cheese suitable for people with lactose intolerance?
Gravier cheese may contain small amounts of lactose, and aged cheeses are often lower in lactose than fresh cheeses. Tolerance varies, so a person with lactose intolerance should consider their own response and the amount they eat.

What is Gravier Cheese?
Gravier Cheese is a semi-hard Swiss cheese made from cow’s milk. It holds its shape when sliced and has a savoury, gently nutty flavour, making it easy to use both on a cheese board and in cooked dishes.
In Switzerland, cheeses of this kind are commonly served with bread or alongside simple accompaniments; elsewhere, try it in a sandwich, on a cheese board, or melted over vegetables. It also works well with apples, pears and crusty bread. With 27 g of protein per 100 g, it is protein-rich, though also energy-dense. A thin slice gives plenty of flavour, especially when paired with fresh vegetables.
