General Handling Procedures
- To maintain original condition: keep cheese cold (33°–35°F) and wrapped in waxed paper. Never use plastic wrap—cheeses need to breathe.
- To speed ripening: place in a warmer part of refrigerator and increase humidity.
- To serve: Remove from the refrigerator only the portion you plan to serve, and bring to room temperature. Rewrap in waxed paper.
