A traditional Norwegian cheese that is aged and has a pungent, distinctive flavor with a soft, creamy texture.
From Norwegian 'gammel' meaning 'old' and 'ost' meaning 'cheese'—literally 'old cheese,' referring to the aging process that develops its unique character.
Gammelost is so pungent and funky that Norwegians serve it as a delicacy—it's an example of how cultures around the world learned to transform milk into explosion-flavored cheeses that taste like nothing else.
