description Danbo Overview
Danbo is a Danish ripened semi-hard cheese made from cow's milk. It is typically pressed into a flat rectangular form, with a pale ivory to yellow body, a firm elastic texture, and small, round, evenly distributed holes. Surface ripening gives it a mild, slightly acidic, aromatic flavor that becomes stronger with age. Caraway and other flavorings may be added in some variants, and the cheese is used for slicing, sandwiches, cheese boards, and cooking.
