Storing & Serving

On arrival: unwrap from the shipping packaging and refrigerate — the vegetable drawer is ideal. Before serving: take it out 30 to 45 minutes ahead. Cold cheese is closed off; at room temperature the paste softens and the flavor actually arrives. Storing: wrap in wax paper or parchment, never plastic wrap — cheese needs to breathe. An aged wedge keeps three to four weeks this way.
