Another thing about Gouda cheese is that while its named after the city of Gouda, it is not due to being made around the city but because it was traded there historically.
The cheese is named after a dutch city. interesting fact! it wasnt made there, but it was traded there and very popular known historically so they named it after that city.
hello  i like the taste of cheese. cheese taste so gouda  :) Neat, gouda's meaning is the cheese from Gouda, which is at the Netherlands. It's also a mild, yellow cheese that gets made from cow's milk. from milk? for some reason I always thought it was made from goat's milk Can't say about that but Gouda is one of the super popular cheese around the world. very popular and very tasty without being overpowering Did you also hear how Gouda cheese was first mentioned in 1184? It is one of the oldest recorded cheese that still gets made. that old, i figured maybe cheddar is older but I am not an expert
The cheese is named after the Dutch city of Gouda, not because it is produced in or near the city, but because it has historically been traded there.
