Boar's Head Baby Swiss Cheese delivers the mild, nutty flavor and signature holes that make Swiss cheese a beloved staple in American kitchens. This one-pound block of baby Swiss offers a gentler, creamier taste compared to traditional Swiss cheese, making it perfect for those who prefer a more subtle cheese experience. Boar's Head has been a trusted name in deli meats and cheeses for decades, known for their commitment to traditional recipes and careful aging processes that develop authentic European-style flavors.
Baby Swiss cheese originated as an American variation of traditional Swiss cheese, created to appeal to milder palates while maintaining the characteristic appearance and melting properties of its Alpine ancestor. The smooth, pale yellow cheese features the classic irregular holes called "eyes" that form naturally during the aging process. Its creamy texture and delicate flavor make it incredibly versatile for both cooking and eating fresh.
This baby Swiss excels in hot and cold applications, melting beautifully for grilled cheese sandwiches, quiches, and fondues. It pairs wonderfully with ham in classic deli sandwiches, adds richness to omelets and breakfast casseroles, and creates an elegant addition to cheese boards alongside fruits like pears and grapes. Try it in traditional dishes like chicken cordon bleu or Swiss cheese soup, or simply enjoy it sliced with crackers and white wine. The convenient one-pound size provides plenty of cheese for family meals while staying fresh when properly wrapped and refrigerated.
