Port-du-Salut cheese

Port-du-Salut or Entrammes is a mild-tasting cow's milk cheese first made by monks in the early 18th century and still produced in monasteries throughout France.

A version of the cheese is produced by a major creamery under the name Port-Salut, though there are subtle differences between the commercially-prepared variety and handmade Port-du-Salut.
