Versatile Block of Leerdammer cheese

We love popping little pieces of Leerdammer continental cheese –  with their distinctive holes – into a salad or slicing some into a sandwich. Try them as a topping for cooking, and of course they make an attractive addition to a cheeseboard.  Check out many different ways of using Leerdammer.

Goed for you too!

We say good, the Dutch say ‘goed’.  But at Leerdammer we know that delicious can be nutritious too: Leerdammer is rich in protein and calcium, fine for vegetarians, lactose-and additive-free cheese and, as it’s made from pasteurised milk, fine for mums-to-be.  More info on cheese & health.

What is the  ‘Leerdammer free-grazing promise’1 ?

In short, it means we want the best for our cows.  There’s no such official term for ‘free-range cheese’ but for us, free-grazing means that cows get to enjoy the great outdoors and graze on Dutch pastures for a minimum of 6 hours, for 120 days a year, from the spring to autumn.  In winter, and at some other times, a cosy shed or stable is more comfortable for them.  Find out more here about our free-grazing promise here.
