 | | I can see that our QdB evolved from this… I also aged a large chunk of store-bought Edam for about 10 weeks in the fridge and it was still elastic and relatively smooth but saltier than the fresh…as the cheese gets older, its flavor gets more pronounced. |
 | | QDB also, to me, has a slightly bitter after-taste, which is why i really didn’t like it as a kid, but i do eat it now, most often melted in a frying pan, semi ‘frico’ style, then straight into a pan de sal. |
 | | I’ve loved QdB since childhood — I had an uncle who loved introducing the children to cheeses and QdB was smack dab in the middle of the stinky to nearly tasteless mild range and us younglings found it perfect. |
