Mont d'Or, also known as "Vacherin", takes its name from the highest mountain in the Doubs.
A seasonal mountain cheese, it is produced from 700 meters above sea level, from August 15 to March 15 outside the herd grazing period.
Presented in its spruce box, its rind is pleated like its native mountains. Its paste, smooth and melting, is eaten with a teaspoon. Put in the oven, drizzled with white wine and seasoned with a little garlic, the "hot box" is a tasty meal, simply accompanied by potatoes and salad.
Practical information: Before tasting it, you must remove the top of its soft crust to the touch with the blade of a knife, following the edge of the cheese. Then serve it with a spoon. Or you can taste it hot (open the top, put a little white wine preferably from the Jura and put it in the oven for a few minutes)
