This Swiss type cheese is known for its delicious nutty flavour and holes.
So what makes the holes? The holes or eyes develop with the addition of a bacteria called Propionic shermanii which feeds on lactose in the milk and creates CO₂, which creates the eyes. The larger the cheese, the bigger the eyes. If you have larger equipment and a big press, I recommend that you double this recipe for a better result.
When made commercially this cheese is made in 60-80 kg (132 -- 176 lbs.) wheels, which aids the uniformity of the eye formation. This recipe will make a 900 gm (2lbs) wheel with much smaller eyes.
