Mimolette Cheese  
A French cheese made from cow's milk that is typically a deep orange-colored, considered to be the same as aged Edam cheese. If served when it is young (three to six months) it has a smooth rind and a firm inner texture with a mild aroma and a mild nutty flavor. When aged (seven to 9 months) it becomes hard and somewhat brittle with a deeply pitted rind that surrounds a cheese providing a distinctive aroma and a very tangy or fruity flavor. It can be served as an appetizer, a snack, as a good cheese to accompany dark bread and beer, as a complement to be grated over salads and other dishes, or as a nice cooking cheese.
