The food of the sheepfolds

The gastronomic cradle of Gamonéu is located in the heart of the Picos de Europa National Park. The cheese matures in natural caves and preserves the aroma of the previous pastoral, transhumant culture, which in spring and summer seeks the high mountain pastures for its native cows, casinas and carreñas, as well as sheep and goats.

I will repeat

Naive me, I asked for it because I had heard wonderful things about it and with the intention of spreading it on bread as usual or accompanying it with a little quince. None of that, the gamoneo is dry and it gets to crumble into fine and compact slabs, it is a cheese that is saying: eat me alone... anyway the smoky flavor is incredible and I'm not sure what to compare it with, very rich anyway.

I saw the other day on social networks that this is the cheese they cook with at El Molín de Mingo, it has to be delicious. They make it nearby, in Peruyes. They also talked about vegetables from Ribadesella. Proximity raw materials! a 10.
