What is gravyer?

Gravyer, also known as Gruyère, is a type of Swiss cheese that originated in the canton of Fribourg, Switzerland. It is made from cow's milk and has a distinctive nutty and sweet flavor. The texture of gravyer cheese is firm, yet pliable, with small holes throughout the cheese. It is a versatile cheese that can be used in a variety of dishes, including soups, quiches, sandwiches, and cheese plates. The aging process of gravyer cheese can range anywhere from three months to several years, with older cheese having a stronger flavor and firmer, more granular texture. It is often compared to other types of Alpine cheeses, such as Emmental and Appenzeller. Gravyer can be found in most supermarkets and specialty cheese shops around the world.
