Gruyère cheese is a yellowcheese made from cow's milk. It was originally made in Switzerland and is named after the village of Gruyères in Switzerland. It is hard, slightly salty, and piquant. When fully aged (three to twelve month) it tends to have small holes and cracks.
Uses
Fondue: Gruyère is a main component of cheese fondue besides Vacherin and Emmenthal (depends on recipe).
Quiche: Adds savoury without overshadowing the other ingredients.
