Norway. The Cheese Legacy of the Vikings
Description
From the spectacular fjords to the valley of goats, Norway's cheese legacy includes more than Jarlsberg. In this episode, host Will Studd visits artisan cheese-makers throughout the country and discovers a wide selection to sample. From a rare skimmed milk cheese that dates back to Viking times, and a fresh cow's milk cheese called Pulltost, to Gammelost, which lives up to its notorious reputation for smelling like old socks and Ghetost, an ancient sweet brown caramel cheese remarkably similar to fudge.
