From fancy cheese plates to fondue to burgers, Toma can do it all! This semi-soft washed-rind tomme is a stellar melter like Raclette, yet it has enough farmstead flavor to shine all on its own. We typically taste notes of lemon, yogurt, almond, cooked cream, and various fruity and vegetal flavors that change from batch to batch. The rind often has a distinctly briny river stone aroma. Try melting Toma under your broiler or in a cast iron pan (or in a Raclette machine, if you are lucky enough to own one!) and scraping it over potatoes, cornichons, and sausages. You won’t be disappointed.
