Start the week of Swiss cheeses and the Mediterranean Diet from today November 15 until the next 20. An excellent opportunity to get to know the magnificent Swiss cheeses in harmony with the Mediterranean Diet. And all this in two very interesting proposals in Madrid with the Candeli restaurant and in Barcelona with the The Peninsular Winery.
Last November 13 was the World Day of the Mediterranean Diet, a great occasion to get closer gastronomically to the beautiful Switzerland and its great cheeses and jointly prepare great dishes. Different landscapes and impressive attractions where great products are made and that the Mediterranean Diet welcomes in its gastronomy. And it is that from the Mediterranean Diet the daily consumption of dairy products such as cheeses and yogurts is recommended. Exquisite Swiss cheeses can largely cover this dairy need in our diet.
Two restaurants harmonize the Mediterranean Diet and Swiss cheeses
For this, these two restaurants, El Candeli in Madrid and Bodega La Peninsular in Barcelona, They have prepared a proposal for the enjoyment of all those cheese lovers during this week. An opportunity to taste four varieties such as Appenzeller, the Emmentaler AOP, Le Gruyère AOP and the Tête de Moine AOP.
These four varieties of Swiss cheeses pair impressively with the gastronomy of the Mediterranean Diet. From the Gruyère AOP, a super laureate cheese and recent winner of the World Cheese Awards that gives us a delicate flavor with a pronounced aroma. The well-known Emmentaler AOP with a silky smooth taste known for its famous holes. The Appenzeller with its aromatic notes reminiscent of Swiss meadows to the refined Tête de Moine AOP that with its flower-shaped cut helps us, even more, to enhance its flavor.
With an excellent raw material
If Swiss cheeses are characterized by something, it is the very high quality of the milk with which they are made. The care that is given to the pastures and livestock is the best raw material for making high-quality cheeses that provide the aroma and flavor of its magnificent landscapes. All of this together with the great Swiss cheese masters and tuners manage to make these cheeses reach excellence. For these reasons, Swiss cheeses receive great recognition in different international competitions, the best chefs want to work with them and they become great companions of the Mediterranean Diet.
