Craving some fiery comfort food this weekend?

Alexandrina's Fresh Cheddar Curd is simply a fresh, unmatured curd of the Cheddar cheese, with the addition of chilli flakes.

This cheese is made in an open-vat using a traditional Cheddaring method, whereby the Cheddar Curd is stretched, milled and salted before being pressed in a special hoop. Alexandrina’s Cheddar Curd has a pleasant mild, salty and savoury flavour, with a unique squeaky texture. Not only is Cheddar a cheese name, the term “cheddaring” describes the stretching step in production, where the large slabs of fresh curd are cut and stacked, and regularly hand-turned, to ensure maximum extraction of whey and even-development of acidity. Alexandrina Cheese are among only a handful of Cheddar producers in Australia today who include this important Cheddaring process.

SERVE THIS CHEESE | on a platter with any locally sourced accompaniment, or fry on a low-heat as you would fry a halloumi-style cheese. You can also use Alexandrina's Fresh Cheddar Curd to make a fiery and hot chilli-style Poutine, a Canadian dish of french fries and cheese curds topped with a brown gravy.

33.8 % minimum fat | available in 250g packets.

We will have our Double Trouble Bundle available at Adelaide Showground Farmers Market this Sunday. 🔥🧀☄️🧯🚒🙋‍♀️

Alexandrina Cheese specialise in making hard-style Jersey farmhouse cheese and luxury jersey dairy products here in Mount Jagged on the central Fleurieu Peninsula, South Australia. Our family handcraft our produce in our modern cheese room from our single origin Jersey Milk. The single herd of sixty Jersey cows graze on our dairy farm, producing 250,000 litres of grass fed milk each year, and we are able to utilise all of the milk in the cheese room. Harvesting our own Jersey milk is immensely important to us, and so we consider ourselves true farmhouse speciality cheese-makers. We are dedicated to providing nutritionally dense, healthy dairy foods to our loyal customers, and our family make it our mission to tell our story to as many of our customers as we possibly can.

Subtle, tangy yet nutty flavoured with a velvety texture. Alexandrina's Crème fraîche is simply delicious!

It’s absolutely a must have for the next few days and weeks, and it’s vital for swirling in your next Winter Soup.

For instance, you can use it in our Recipe of the week: (p.s. you’ll also need our Grated Pepato!)

https://alexandrinacheese.com.au/blogs/curds-whey/alexandrina-zucchini-and-potato-soup-served-with-alexandrina-creme-fraiche

Alexandrina's Crème fraîche is a naturally matured, thickened soured cream using culture. It has a light and lemony taste, and goes well with both savoury and sweet foods as a condiment. Crème fraîche is made by adding a culture (special bacteria) to and fermenting our fresh Pure Jersey Cream. It has a subtle tangy, slightly nutty flavour and rich, velvety texture.

30 % minimum fat | available in 500 ml tub.

Heat Stability: our Alexandrina Crème fraîche has a higher fat content (around 27% minimum) and won't curdle or split when boiled, making it ideal for hot sauces and casseroles.

Flavour Profile: It is less tart and sour than standard sour cream, offering a more creamy-mellow, nutty tang.

Versatility: Unlike sour cream, our Alexandrina crème fraîche can actually be whipped like a heavy cream to create a thick, stable topping for desserts.

It’s absolutely not for the faint hearted!
