SWISS EMMENTAL

Hello everyone. Welcome to my channel.
This video is dedicated to all cheese lovers. It is about visiting the Swiss cheese maker located near Burgdorf village in Switzerland where this delicate dairy product is made with high quality milk and 1000 year old recipe. It has nutritional benefits and it is recommended in many diets. Please do not forget to like, comment and share videos. Thank you for your support.

Protein: Just one ounce of Swiss cheese packs a whopping 8 grams of protein. Compare that to American cheese at 5 grams.
Calcium: It’s no secret that cheese is a good source of calcium – and Swiss cheese does not disappoint, with 270 mg in each ounce. That’s 22 percent of your daily value!
Lower sodium: An ounce of Swiss contains just 54 mg of sodium, or 2 percent of your daily value. Compare that to the 468 mg in an ounce of American cheese.
Phosphorus: Calcium and phosphorus are critical for bone formation as well as helping to maintain bone density. Swiss cheese contains higher levels of phosphorus than other cheeses.
Vitamin B-12: When compared with other types of cheeses, Swiss cheese is known to have the most B-12 of any of its peers. B-12 is known for being an essential part of your overall health with particular benefits to your circulatory and nerve health.

Visiting this place brought up many nice memories worth sharing. It starts on the farm with a friendly cow and green pastures on the foothills of the Swiss Alps. That picture ended up on the front page of the local newspaper. On the way to the cheese factory we saw a trading post for Swiss Milka cows and the Burgdorf castle.The cheese production takes place behind the glass walls and visitors are welcomed. You can sample many cheeses or buy one. There is a nice restaurant inside the building. All under one roof.

Edam's Wednesday Cheese Market

Edam's memorializes it's Dutch cheese market on on most Wednesday at 10:30am - 12:30pm between July & August at Jan van Nieuwenhuizen Square. It's a very popular event.

Costumed farmers row the cheese to town in small boats & unload it at a special quay where it is put on wooden stretchers called “berries”. Then it's carried to the market to set the much haggled price.

The cheeses are then again loaded onto a stretcher and taken to the balance (‘de waag), to be weighed. Next it's transported to the cheese store - by horse and an original cheese carriage - for ‘maturing’.

Until 1922, cheese was traded here this way.

Unfortunately, there was a down pour the morning of our visit & we had an abbreviated version, but it still was a lot of fun .

The locals made you feel like the sun was brightly shining. as they smiled and fed you enough free cheese samples to make you skip lunch & even rethink dinner.
