Description
Norfolk White Lady is a full fat, soft, bloomy, camembert-style ewes milk cheese with a velvety paste. Delicious oven baked like a classic camembert, and ideal for anyone who cannot eat cows milk cheeses and misses this style.
It is made at Willow Farm in Deopham near Wymondham, Norfolk. Norfolk is not known for dairy, as cheesemaker Jane Murray points out, but her patch of land has richer, wetter soil than other parts of the county. The cheese is handmade on the farm using milk from a sixty-strong herd of white Friesian sheep grazing the Black Fens of Wymondham.
Jane began making cheese with milk from her flock twenty-one years ago, becoming the county's first commercial cheesemaker, and is still the only cheesemaker selling ewes milk cheese in Norfolk.
How much to buy
