Can you substitute provolone or feta cheese for Swiss cheese?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It depends on the dish you are making. In many situations, Provolone could be used as a substitute for Swiss; although the flavor is different, it slices and melts similarly to Swiss. It's difficult to think of any way that Feta could be a good substitute for Swiss.

What milk makes Swiss cheese?

Swiss cheese ingredients

The first step in producing fine Swiss cheese involves sourcing the milk, which in Switzerland comes from cows that have been free to graze on the fresh grass and clovers on the mountains and hillsides of Switzerland. All Swiss cheese relies on raw milk as its base ingredient. Traditional Swiss cheese is made by hand and often left to ripen for several months before being sent to market for sale. Some varieties of Swiss cheese are flavoured through being wiped with various herbs during the ripening process.

Hope it helps!!!!! :)

How does Swiss chard taste?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Swiss chard is a member of the beet family but it is grown for its leaves rather than its root. It is grown widely in Western Europe under a variety of local names. In France it is called blette. The plant grows to about 50-60cm in height. It has glossy green leaves similar in shape to a cos lettuce. The leaves have a distinctive fleshy, white central rib. The green parts of the leaf can be used in all the ways that you can use spinach while the white centre rib can be steamed or stir-fried as a separate dish, or cut into segments boliled in salted water until tender,placed in an ovenproof dish covered with a cheese sauce and baked off in the oven until the top is a pale gold. Unfortunately the white rib has a tendency to turn a greyish colour when cooked so the cheese sauce both adds flavour to the dish but also disguises the cooked rib. You can also get so called rainbow chard which has stalks and ribs of various colours including red, yellow and a purplish hue. These make a jolly addition to the vegetable garden and are just as edible as the ordinary variety.

Since Nabisco discontinued their Swiss cheese crackers and bacon crackers are the recipes available for fans of these lost treats?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

When I worked for Nabisco in Oakland, CA, they were pretty tight with their formulas. Also, their formulas are for batches of dough that weigh 100s of pounds. I'm not sure they would apply well to a family-sized batch. Ingredient amounts don't divide down one-for-one perfectly.

** New Update ** I have not seen any recipes, but I can tell you the crackers are still available...... but in Canada. Both the Bacon and Swiss Cheese Crackers are made still by Christie brands, which is the Canadian arm of Kraft Foods/Nabisco.

It is best to order them by bigger cases, I last ordered a combined case of the bacon and Swiss cheese, and ordered them from www.canadianfavourites.com.

They are the exact same recipe and shapes as our old favorites.

Why is Swiss cheese good for you?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Swiss cheese tends to be more lower in sodium than other cheeses. If you don't care for the strong taste of swiss, try baby swiss.. it is much lighter!

Swiss cheese has more calcium than many other types of cheese. Calcium-rich foods reduce fat-producing enzymes and increase fat breakdown. The best pick would be a reduced-fat variety.
