Nothing turns off your appetite to cheese like a moldy slice of Jarlsberg with fuzz-filled holes. How you care for your cheese impacts how long it stays fresh. When you store Jarlsberg, a semi-firm type of Swiss cheese with holes, you must start out by selecting a package of cheese that is not due to expire soon. A longer shelf life per the expiration date gives you more time to enjoy your Jarlsberg.
Jarlsberg is a variety of Swiss cheese with a mild, sweet, nutty flavor. It is made in Norway and exported all over the world. It is one of the most popular "baby Swiss" cheeses.
