Meet your anytime, anywhere cheese. Toma—made by Point Reyes Farmstead Cheese Co.—was modeled after classic Italian table cheeses like fontina and provolone. Mild with sweet and nutty notes, firm yet supple. As satisfying on a cheese board as it is as an everyday snack. Cut into triangles, add Murray’s Rosemary Marcona Almonds and Jumbo Medjool Dates, and you have the perfect savory-sweet spread.
“Gluten-free, this semi-firm cheese can be considered the perfect pairing cheese as it goes with everything. I suggest using this cheese to pull out all the jams & spreads to really explore different flavor profiles. Try one of my selections for a more unusual pairing; drizzle olive oil and balsamic vinegar over your cheesy bite.”
