Description

Port Salut

Port Salut is a delicious French cheese. This cheese was first made in the 1800s by the monks of Notre Dame in Paris. She only made the cheese to eat herself. Then, years later, when the recipe was given to a cheese maker from Paris, it really became known. This cheesemaker soon sold huge numbers of this cheese to Parisians, and eventually the cheese was registered as an official brand name. Today it is one of the best-selling French cheeses in the world!
