Description:	Mature Red Leicester is an English cheese similar to Cheddar cheese, but crumbly in texture. It is typically aged 6 to 12 months. Red Fox Mature Red Leicester Cheese, 1 lb. offers a familiar, tangy flavor with hints of hazelnut on the finish. Rich savory and creamy on the palate, this cheese also boasts a bright orange color from the use of annatto. It used to be called Leicestershire Cheese but came to be called Red Leicester. This was to distinguish it from "White Leicester," which was made to a national wartime recipe in the 1940s due to rationing. The coloring is so bold that Red Leicester really stands out on the cheese platter, often making it the first cheese that needs to be replenished. A perfect cheese for snacking, Red Leicester is also at home in sandwiches, hot or cold. A great melter, try it in omelets, Mac 'n' Cheese or on nachos. Red Fox Mature Red Leicester Cheese, 1 lb. pairs well with your favorite beer or ale as well as a variety of red wines such as pinot noir, merlot or cabernet sauvignon. Serving suggestion: Allow your cheese to reach room temperature (remove from refrigeration about one hour before serving) as cheese is best experienced at room temperature to enjoy the full spectrum of flavors.!
