Marieke Gouda Reserve
oil on wood, 12x12"
From the Cheese Portraits series.
This extra aged raw milk Gouda is like cheese candy. I stopped by my favorite cheese shop in South Philly, the original 9th street Di Bruno Brothers, looking for something that would glow. The Monger, Stefania put a piece of this in my hand and I wanted it, no NEEDED it. It's crazy good.
I've always been amazed at Marieke since I first tried and painted their cheese. Marieke Penterman and family relocated from the Netherlands to the ideal grasses of northern Wisconsin and brought their traditional world class Gouda making to the USA. I've seen her profiled on CBS Sunday Morning, I've seen her countless times on stages accepting award after award for her cheese; this woman is a rock star, iconic and heroic.
This 1000 + days aged wheel offers all the crystals that add subtle (and gratifying!) crunchy bits known as tyrosine to that rich and creamy texture of the cheese paste. Marieke Gouda has no additives, coloring and cares for and ages that sweet caramel flavor from old world recipes.
