Nowadays few <em>Cheshires<\/em> are made by hand.<\/p>\n<p>We make<em> L&#8217;Eixart <\/em>with raw cow&#8217;s milk, adding beef rennet, ferments and salt. After setting, we mold it and press it with a high weight for 24 hours. Then we wrap each piece with a cloth soaked in olive oil, which results in a very clean skin after maturation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Texture:<\/strong> It is a crumbly, brittle and much less elastic cheese than its cousin <em>Cheddar<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Colour:<\/strong> Yellowish white, pale peach.
