Cheese, Sweden
Prastost means "Priest Cheese" in Swedish. This cheese received its name in the days when it was customary for Swedish farmers to donate a tenth of everything they produced to the local priest; and only the very best would do. A distinctive cheese with a rich and strong flavor, enjoy Prastost as you would a fine Cheddar - as a snack or shredded atop chili or soup.
- Made from pasteurized cow's milk.
- We cut and wrap this item by the 1/2 pound.
