The recipe is for Limburger cheese - the translator did not translate what kind of cheese it is, so I bought the one I love. The taste, oo I don't even know how to say it, a pleasant sourness and onion aroma are added to the cheese one, and goes very well with a glass of strong (as the tasters said). Well, it turns out interesting, I do not regret what I cooked.

Yeah, let's try!

Pickled Limburger - cheese (Franconian style)

In the old days, this cheese was produced on the territory of the Duchy of Limburg (now this territory is divided among themselves by Belgium, the Netherlands and Germany).

Limburg cheese (Limburger) is classified as a semi-soft cheesemade from cow's milk. It has a rather spicy taste and a very soft consistency. The aroma of this cheese is notable for its acridity. However, throughout the history of its existence, cheese has had many fans. Among them, by the way, was even A. Pushkin. The same one. Remember his poem:

And Strasbourg is an imperishable pie
Between the cheese of Limburgian living
And golden pineapple.


By the way, they called him "alive" for a reason. These words describe its unusual consistency. It is so soft that it spreads instantly after cutting. However, the same words can be used to describe the "breath" of the cheese, and its "cry" (sometimes droplets of moisture appeared on the surface).

In the book by T. Lavrentieva on the culture of the feast at the beginning of the 19th century, the author pointed out that Limburg cheese had such a pungent smell that it was feared to be consumed before it was published. This is similar to how we today try not to eat onions or garlic before going to the theater, to work, or to visit.

==================================
Apparently, because of this quality of the cheese "that Limburg cheese had such a pungent smell that they were afraid to use it before going out", they preferred to pickle it in order to reduce the harshness of perception and soften the taste
From my experience I know that a very tasty cheese is obtained in a marinade with herbs and spices, soft, suluguni, Adyghe, feta cheese. The forum has recipes for such cheese https://Mcooker-enn.tomathouse.com/index.php@option=com_smf&topic=108421.0
Bon appetit, everyone!

"For lack of a stamp - we write in simple". In the absence of Limburger, we pickle whatever we get! Because it will be very tasty!

This is not true! I've tried pickling regular Lambert-type cream cheese. It doesn't work out, I won't risk it anymore, although of course it's a matter of taste
Soft cheeses, feta cheese, suluguni and others are best suited for pickling - this is very tasty
You just need to cook two options and evaluate it yourself

I don't really know what the taste of pickled Limburger should be, there is nothing to compare with. I liked how the Poshekhonsky cheese turned out.

I often pickle Camembert, we really like it.

oh, I had an experience with Limburger, matching the situation in Jerome K Jerome's Three Men in a Boat. It's a killer scent! More precisely, on the contrary, it can revive the dead. I managed to taste a bite, after which we and the neighbors exhausted the bottle of freshener. Try Limburger for the second time? The second time I will not perform this feat.
