About

bloomy rind cheese

How to choose

A bloomy rind is the pale surface growth associated with cheeses such as Brie and Camembert. The rind describes the outside of the cheese; milk source and milk treatment are separate details to check.

Compare the producer and format as well as the cheese name. A cut of Brie and a small Camembert offer different ways to serve a table. Add a contrasting hard or blue cheese for variety, or explore washed-rind cheeses when you want a different ripening style.
