Walnut-Studded Dutch Cheeses

Trader Joe's Has a New Walnut Gouda Cheese for the Fall

Just in time for the holidays, Trader Joe's has just added a new Walnut Gouda Cheese.

Made by an expert cheese maker in the Netherlands, Trader Joe's new Walnut Gouda Cheese starts with a classic young Gourda base. The smooth and mellow-flavored cheese is then stuffed with crunchy walnut pieces, which add some contrasting tastes and textures to the cheese. As Trader Joe's notes: "Each bite is mild yet earthy, creamy yet crunchy, and undeniably delicious."

One of the more versatile cheeses available, Trader Joe's new Walnut Gouda Cheese lends itself well to a wide variety of applications. Add it to a cheese board alongside some fresh apple slices, or throw it on a sandwich with some oven-roasted turkey. You could even melt it on a baguette for a quick and easy snack.
