Morbier is an [[AOP]] semi-soft cows' [[milk]] [[cheese]] named after the small village of Morbier in Franche-Comté. It is ivory coloured, soft and slightly elastic, and is immediately recognizable by the black layer of tasteless ash separating it horizontally in the middle. It has a rind that is yellowish, moist, and leathery.
Morbier is an [[AOP]] semi-soft cows' [[milk]] [[cheese]] named after the small village of Morbier in Franche-Comté. It is ivory coloured, soft and slightly elastic, and is immediately recognisable by the black layer of tasteless ash separating it horizontally in the middle. It has a rind that is yellowish, moist, and leathery.


Traditionally, the cheese consists of a layer of morning [[milk]] and a layer of evening [[milk]]. When making [[Gruyère de Comté]], cheesemakers would end the day with leftover [[curd]] that was not enough for an entire [[cheese]]. Thus, they would press the remaining evening [[curd]] into a mould, and spread ash over it to protect it overnight. The following morning, the [[cheese]] would be topped up with morning [[milk]]. Nowadays, it is usually made from a single milking with the ash added for tradition.
