About Mimolette

Mimolette is a firm cow's-milk cheese associated with northern France. It is commonly sold as a round wheel with a notably orange interior and a hard outer rind; the rind's appearance can vary with age and maturation.

It is eaten in slices or pieces and may also be grated. Younger cheese is generally firmer and milder, while longer-aged examples become harder and more pronounced in flavour. Moisture, fat, and flavour therefore vary with age and the specific cheese.
