England’s highly esteemed Stilton® cheese has been made in the exact same way and in the exact same places as it has been for hundreds of years. It’s so revered, in fact, that it’s protected by the European Union with a PDO, or protected designation of origin, to ensure any cheese bearing the name lives up to its spectacular reputation—cheeses like Trader Joe’s Strawberry White Stilton® Cheese.

Produced for us in Leicestershire, in the heart of the Vale of Belvoir, to be precise, this White Stilton® is made only from locally pasteurized cow’s milk, infused with a pleasant punch of pomegranate powder and fruity, freeze-dried Strawberry pieces. It’s formed into a cylindrical shape, but is not pressed during its one-month aging period to help create an airy texture. The result is a sensationally light, slightly tangy cheese that offers pops of sweetness throughout, complement the savory nature and creamy-crumbly texture of the base.

Consider crumbling a handful of this Strawberry White Stilton® Cheese on a salad or melting a thick slice on a steak. It also presents particularly well on a cheeseboard alongside fresh strawberries (plan ahead—it’s best enjoyed after a 30-minute rest at room temperature). And since each mini-Cheese wheel (endearingly called a truckle in the cheese world) is encased in a thick, non-edible, bright red wax, it can be easily popped in a purse or packed in a picnic basket—don’t forget the cutting board and knife!
