Leicester cheese

This orangy-red, cow's-milk cheese resembles cheddar but has a higher moisture content. Its crumbly texture makes slicing difficult but facilitates grating. The flavor is mellow with a tangy aftertaste. Leicester melts beautifully, which makes it perfect for dishes such as welsh rabbit. It's also good for snacks and makes a mild accompaniment for fruit.
