{"product_id":"ribblesdale-ash","title":"Ribblesdale Ash","description":"\u003ch2\u003eDescription\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRibblesdale Ash is an elegant soft goats cheese coated in a fine layer of edible vegetable ash. The ash gives the cheese its striking appearance and encourages the development of a delicate natural rind as it matures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMade from British goats milk, it is carefully ripened to strike a balance between freshness and richness. As it ages the firm, chalky centre gradually softens beneath the rind, creating a wonderful contrast in texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHand-made at a small dairy in Hawes, North Yorkshire, Ribblesdale were among the first cheese makers to launch a goat curd, which has become enormously popular. During production the curds are drained, hand portioned and shaped into logs, then lightly brushed with a dusting of ash. The logs take around two weeks to mature and develop a distinctive wrinkly rind that protects the smooth, creamy white paste within.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow much to buy\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll cheeses are hand cut, therefore the weights listed are approximate.
