Mahon cheese, a [[:Category:Spanish recipes#DOP ingredients|DOP]] cow’s cheese from the island of Menorca. | |||
In general, the cheese has a soft, firm texture, depending on the maturity. The colour varies from white to a strong yellow. It does develop small holes, but no larger than the size of a [[pea]]. It has a mild, slightly salty and acid flavour, and to some it can have an aroma of toasted [[hazelnuts]]. | In general, the cheese has a soft, firm texture, depending on the maturity.
