🧀🍯 TINE BRUNOST MILD BROWN CHEESE (15 Sticks x 15g)

⭐ Norway's Iconic Treat: Sweet, Savory, and Caramel-Rich Cheese

Discover Brunost (Brown Cheese), the famous, unique, and mildly sweet cheese that is a staple in every Norwegian household! This version, made by TINE, comes in a convenient pack of 15 individually wrapped sticks, perfect for enjoying this Nordic delicacy wherever you go in Japan.

Brunost is not like typical cheese; it gets its signature brown color and caramel-like flavor from slowly boiling down whey, milk, and cream. The natural milk sugar caramelizes, creating a fudge-like texture and a unique sweet and slightly salty taste. It's a comforting flavor that is mild and addictive!

🌟 Why This Stick Format is Perfect for Japan

1. Ultimate Convenience & Portion Control

Size: Each stick is a perfectly portioned 15g serving. Total package weight is 225g.

Portability: Individually wrapped, these sticks are ideal for throwing in your bag for a snack at the office, a picnic in the park, or as a quick, healthy boost when traveling.

No Slicer Needed: Traditional Brunost is eaten in thin slices using a special cheese slicer (Ostehøvel). These sticks eliminate the need for any special equipment!

2. A Mild, Unique Flavor

If you or your kids find sharp cheese too strong, the mild, sweet flavor of Brunost makes it an accessible and delicious "dessert cheese" or snack.

💡 Usage Hacks & Traditional Nordic Pairings

Traditional Nordic Style

Toast and Jams: The most classic way! Slice or break off a piece and melt it slightly on warm toast, rye bread, or crackers. A dollop of strawberry or blueberry jam is the ultimate Nordic pairing.

Waffles/Pancakes: Serve with waffles or thick pancakes for a rich, creamy, and mildly sweet topping.

Cooking & Leftover Hacks

Sweet & Savory Sandwiches: Use thin slices in a grilled cheese sandwich with ham for a delicious "sweet and salty" combo. The flavor intensifies slightly when heated.

Soup Secret: Melt a small amount into savory stews or cream-based soups (like beef stew or chili). It adds a profound richness and a subtle, balancing sweetness (like adding a touch of brown sugar) to the broth.

Fruit Pairing: Serve alongside crisp apple slices, pear, or grapes for a simple, elegant snack.
