Spanish Sheep Milk Cheese with Quince Jam
"From the land of rugged cliffs and golden fields that produce savory olives, saffron, and towering windmills... we present Trader Joeβs Spanish Sheep Milk Cheese with Quince Jam. Developed by experts exclusively for Trader Joeβs, this Spanish Cheese is crafted with fresh Sheep Milk sourced from the Mountains of Toledo and enhanced with locally sourced Quince, to deliver a classic Spanish pairing. Quince Jam is injected into the curds, after the Cheese has ripened for two months. (For those unfamiliar, Quince is a member of the rose family with tart, bracing flavor that turns sweet when cooked.) Then the combination is vacuum-sealed and allowed to mature for an additional three months. The finished, firm Cheese boasts veins of bright-pink Jam and a smooth, creamy, and salty profile that finishes with a hint of tart-sweet fruit. Itβs a delightful harmony of flavors that pairs well with lamb, duck, chicken, and yes, Turkey! For a full tapas experience, serve with a Spanish red wine, sliced Fuyu Persimmons, briny Spanish Manzanilla Olives with Pimentos, and TJβs Nuts About Rosemary Mix."
