Located in Skowhegan (one of my ancestral homes), the Crooked Face Creamery makes another product that deserves a place in your fridge, a Gouda-style unpasteurized cheese agreed for at least 60 days in a natural rind. This buttery cheese (imagine Homer Simpson saying it), has a rich flavor and a dense bite, a texture that I can only call "cheesy," not crumbly or chalky at all. Like with all great cheeses (and great chocolate), it's the quality, not the quantity, which matters most, and that means this small wedge may last another few days. I only wish I had tried their ricotta, which won third place in a national competition in Wisconsin in 2013! Those folks in Wisconsin know their cheeses.
