Eyssen Komijn Block Cheese

Eyssen blokkaas is an icon on the Dutch sandwich. This rectangular processed cheese with caraway seeds has that distinctive, soft texture you won't find anywhere else: creamy, compact and perfectly sliceable into thin pieces. The caraway adds a subtle, warm spiciness that complements the mild, savory cheese flavor beautifully.

Blokkaas is a typically Dutch product: cheese that is melted and reset into a smooth, homogeneous mass. That process gives it its characteristic compact texture and mild flavor. For many people, this is the cheese of childhood, the one that was always in the fridge. Still a great choice for a quick, tasty sandwich.

Goes well with: a glass of milk, orange juice or a light lager. The ultimate sandwich cheese, but also delicious in a toasted sandwich or melted over a fried egg on toast. Also check out our Young Caraway for a more artisanal caraway cheese, or our Extra Mature Caraway for more depth of flavor.
