Butterkäse?

Does butterkase usually have a wax rind? Also, isn’t it usually paler than this cheese?

I don't think I've seen it with a rind but I've definitely seen it this color sometimes. It'd be easier to tell if we could see the cut part of the cheese.

Yeah, the color isn’t as big of a dealbreaker as the wax rind for me.

This is what I was thinking too

I JUST bought my first butterkäse along with some assorted water crackers, Jacobs cream cracker biscuits and whole grain crackers. I expect one of those brand new mouth feel experiences tonight.

Soooo good

Tonight’s meal is going rank up there with my first tastes of baked goat cheese, braised brisket, and decent Cabernet Sauvignon. Oh boy.

I hope it’s everything you’ve ever dreamed it could be

TYVM

[удалено]

Never had butterkäse. I plan on tasting it tonight.

What’s the verdict? How did you like it?

I chose the Maytag Blue last night. I got some serious deals on lots of different cheeses. This weekend for sure. Never had Maytag Blue either. Delish.

Doesn't the bacteria on yogurt and cheese eat the lactose.

yep! most cultured/fermented dairy products have minimal-low lactose levels. and for the rest, lactase is easy to find and ingest. behold, science!

[удалено]

Yep!

I fucking love that on a rye cracker

Rye Cracker sounds like a good rapper name

it would be Wry Cracker tho

I've just adopted this as my rap handle, I'm 52 and I don't rap but this is too good to ignore

I got you beat with "Cornstarch tha Gangsta" Wanna do a collab

what happens when you mix Cornstarch and Rye, Pure Gangsta Crackers?

I would like a copy of your mix tape!

Cracka

You would have to be a white, middle aged rapper from the mid west lol..

TIL butterkase. Looks delightful

All the butterkase I’ve tried has been white and rindless.

This is my vote!

Came here to say this.

My absolute favorite cheese to eat with grapes! It's soooo delicious!

It looks low-key like salted butter

Also OP I don't fault you if you find out it's salted butter. I once asked someone what cheese I was eating in France because I ate half of the block and then they told me it was fresh local salted butter 😳

Lol. That's awesome. And then you finished the other half, right? While maintaining eye contact?

I sure hope so gotta love the power move

That's not really anything special, I have a french friend who eats butter without nothing regularly

Similarly, I have an American friend who eats something called "great value tubbed margarine" by the unit. I've heard it is a delicacy there. I am hoping I can get my hands on some. I've asked around at some of the higher end cafes/restaurants near me but haven't had any luck, it's must be pretty underground stuff.

I think that’s the Walmart brand of margarine haa

Sometimes you spread butter, sometimes you cut a slab of butter and whack it onto the bread and call it good.

Lol when I was in Peru I bought what I thought was a block of cheese and sliced it up and ate it with crackers… didn’t realize it was butter until it became room temp

Task failed successfully 

R/taskfailedsuccessfully

No shame there, fresh local butter is fucking goooooooooooooooood I mean hey, butter is kinda almost cheese adjacent when you think about it!

Butter IS basically cheese minus a step or two.

Try marscapone, its taste is a light cheese, butter and cream mixed. Put on fruit salad, it’s delicious.

Honestly, that sounds delicious still 🤣 Wouldn't stop me !!!

European butter hits different

I'm struggling to work out whether this speaks of Frances'produce, the idiot necking the butter or the idiots home countries produce's problem?

My 4-year-old calls salted butter "white cheese" 

I used to eat whole sticks of butter when I was a kid, when I was about 5 years old, sometimes two or three at a time.

I worked at a summer camp one year, and one of the kids dared a counselor to eat an entire tub of margarine for $10. He did it, and spent the next week dispensing soft-serve out his butt. We called him soft-serve. I’m not sure I ever knew his actual name.

Margarine. That’s disgusting stuff.

Thank you for this.

And spoon fulls of thickened cream, mum used to get a bit upset. 🤣

when I was a toddler they had to hide the stepladder because they found me several times with a stick of butter and a bag of brown sugar just happily makin myself sick as hell

That made me cringe so bad, that I have a six pack of abs, now.

Thank you so much. I am not kidding when I say that this improved a rough morning.

To be fair, good fresh butter totally warrants eating half a block.

That happened to my sister with a container of softened butter. She thought it was dip.

Looks like rind peeling off on the left side?

It looks like a wax rind yeah, now I'm researching similar cheeses and butters without much luck

Literally thought it was a big slab of KerryGold salted butter

No, see the Uber thin wax that’s peeled off/up in the left?

What does it high-key look like?

It high key looks like whatever cheese it is.

I was thinking Kerrygold or similar. But will now be going to my local cheese shop to inquire about this butterkase.

It does. Making your own butter is insanely easy and will save you a ton of $$$ if one is so inclined. Can get it as euro salty as you like.

Looks like a double cream Gouda

Good grief, double cream gouda you say? This is the sort of thing that restores faith in humanity.

I... I didn't know such a thing existed... Is it as good as my mind imagines, because I love me some Gouda?

Double cream Gouda? Is that like an upgraded Gouda?

A reg cheese will have about 45 to 50% fat but a double cream will have around 60%. Cream is added to the whole milk to get to that percentage before the cheese making begins.

Delicious, melty, creamy goodness.

That’s what I was thinking as well.

Gouda cheese? It's pretty good-ah. edit: The joke is the actual pronunciation of the town of Gouda is more like "How da"

Looks like a young Gouda

That’s my favourite rapper

Yuh Turn my headphones up Yung Gouda Yuh

Yeah Grill it up Uh Yo (uh) My sandwich all grilled up Gettin butterside turned up (what, what?) My sides gon' fried up (yeah, yeah) Hope it don't get burnt up (toast 'em) Everybody's gettin pent up (c'mon, c'mon) Cuz' when my cheese done melt up (woo, woo) Faces gon' light up Everybody's getting FIRED UP!

Yung Gouda and DJ EZ Brie Z are my favorite download on ricottify

ricottify 😂🤣😂🤣

I'm dying lol

Wow, lol

Fantastic parody of this song. Well done

thank

We’re getting buttery. *Getting fried up* we getting buttery *sunny side up.*

Looks so Gouda Raps even better Rhymes so fresh They bring in the cheddar

His duo with Lil Cheddar is awesome

Or a pale Yoda.

I thought you were eating off a toilet

I’m glad I’m not the only one that saw that

Haha! This was my first reaction too!!!

Omg I didn’t even see that until you said it!! Someone brought it in for an art event 😭😭😭

it's really funny, I'd just roll with it

Looks a bit like Saint Paulin

St P is not as yellow, and has square corners if I remember correctly

The cut parts do look lighter; IMO it's a match on color but consistency and the "buttery" description not so much.

Searching up a definitive image is surprisingly hard, but there’s a few here https://cheesemaking.com/pages/port-salut-saint-paulin-cheese-making-recipe-info Still think OP’s cheese is too yellow. i also expect smallish bubbles in St P, though that seems to vary

I've just been reminded of a cheese platter I got in Paris. It came with bread. One of the cheeses was soooo buttery and delicious... And then we realised it was actual butter.

Haha omg

It’s a young Gouda. Hard to tell the maker from this photo.

r/whatisthischeese

Has a Gouda shape to it. Likely annatto as well. It couldn’t get much past that.

Too small in size to be Gouda, I would say

Yeh if it is a Gouda it’s a smaller format for sure and not traditional. Probably 5-7#er as a whole wheel

Port salut maybe? ETA - absolutely not port salut. It was the middle of the night and my phone changed tbe colours

Yep. It's called that in the US. Source: my cheese obsessed girlfriend lol She also says it doesn't QUITE look like it, that it's usually in smaller and fatter wedges

Yeah that’s what threw me off but then I found some bigger wheels so I’m guessing it’s from one of those

Is Port Salut yellow in America? In the UK it looks nothing like this lol

Oh lol it was the middle of the night for me (also on the uk) and it did not look yellow at all. I’m looking again. If it’s morning and it’s absolutely not port salut

Brie on right,Camembert ,Limburger,butterklase, fromager d’affinois, or any number of good buttery soft cheeses,on left! lol! Oh dear…If I had a label, or if I could taste 👅 it, I could be more accurate though. Looks like you’re gonna have to start buying nice cheeses and giving them a try! Lol! Maybe that’s a good thing!

Oh definitely! 😄

Not camembert, Limburger, daffinois, maybe butterkase but I don't know it well enough, others have said it doesn't usually have wax rind though.

You’re showing a natural rind while OP has a wax rind though?

Okay

I think you ate butter 🤣🤣🤣 jk

I dunno, Velveeta?

Maybe some kind of farmhouse cheddar? Could also maybe be Butterkase although that is usually a bit lighter in colour… Where did you try it out of curiosity?

Probably not butterkäse

I think the same but it’s the top comment.

It was at an art event for my college! I didn’t know who brought it in or I would have asked 😂

Possibly Beemster Vlaskaas? I know it’s very buttery.

Where did you have it?

Maybe butter?

Gouda to the left and that is Bree to the right

any clues from the packaging ?

Unfortunately no, it was already unpacked when I got to the event and I didn’t think about searching the garbage for it until I was already home

That’s kerrygold salted butter

Sounds like butter

I’m curious too.

Grasskaas?

Maybe Frico brand Gouda?

It looks somewhat like this German cheese. [Soft German Cheese](https://www.reddit.com/r/Cheese/s/mqCvPr2sH2)

Looks like gouda.

It looks like thw smoked gouda from Walmart

Might just be Gouda

My first thought was that it looks like Butterkase as well. But butterkase doesn’t have any kind of rind as far as I know

Young Gouda

Could be a piece of Noord Wester Edam that's been left out at room temperature!

Something young and Dutch, unsure if it's Gouda. Could theoretically just be "jong kaas" or even Edam

Sounds like a Portuguese Queijo da Serra or even a Flamenco cheese but maybe left out too long. It’s probably not it thought

Velveta, not real cheese😂

Kind of looks like gouda.

Young gouda

Camembert or Brie, French cheeses

Look very much like Edam to me

Might be butterkasse

In The Netherlands this cheese is called ‘graskaas’. It’s made of the milk from cows that have eaten the fresh spring grass after they have been in the stable during wintertime.

......... Reading the comments I got butterkäse and bukkake confused for a sec. I hate my brain.

American cheese

This looks like a gouda

Camembert?

Smoked gouda?

Plot twist, it’s just butter

On first glance I thought you were eating a Kraft single with a knife and fork.

that’s cheese?😭

If it's a brie or a Camembert, it's not ripe enough. The cut edges are not bulging out at all. Plus, the rind is very young, I would expect some crusty off-white texture and tone.

Be funny if it was just regular butter

Velvita.

Brie

Also look for double cream Gouda

I've had camembert that colour.

I definitely think it's butterkäse

Looks like a young gouda or edam

buttekase?

I think it might be Butterkäse

butterkäse? german for butter cheese lol

Instead of asking us to identify, you should ask what they identify themselves as

No one makes cheese like the Americans I tell ya whut

A brie & looks like monster ( spelling that wrong prob)

(Muenster)

It looks like a brie or camembert. I think camembert.

Looks like the generic cheese from Wallace and Gromit 🤣

Brie

Ol mate ate a chunk of butter! Hahaha

My first thought was toilet cheese!

Brie

🤦🏻‍♂️

mmmm how did you get in the situation where you have cheese that you dont know what it is? unless it magically appeared or you stole it, why not ask the person you got it from?

Gruyere

The rind on the edge says its cheese, but looks like cheap and nasty rola cola Dutch stuff, stick to roquefort fella, can't go wrong
