摘要

A process for preparing Maasdammer cheese and comparable cheese types is provided, wherein, without using a supporting bandage around the fresh cheese, such conditions are chosen for the pickling and the storage of the cheese after the pickling that the diameter of the cheese increases with no more than 1.5% during the first 15 days after the pickling. The invention also relates to the so obtained cheese. In particular the brine strength is chosen at 18-25 DEG baumé and the brine temperature between 10 and 14 DEG C.
