Firm Cheeses

From supple and elastic to hard and crunchy, this category is home to all of your firm favorites. What gives these snackable cheeses their noteworthy consistency is the way they’re made--typically, these types of cheese include those that are made by the curds being pressed, resulting in a paste with a denser texture and less moisture than softer cheeses. One cheese that dominates this category? Cheddar—smooth, crumbly, or satisfyingly crunchy, this cheese is one firm variation we can’t get enough of.
