How to open a Waxed Cheese Truckle
- Allow the cheese to reach room temperature for at least one hour before opening. This will give a cleaner and easier cut through the wax and give the cheese a better flavour profile.
- Use a sharp knife and cut around the top of the truckle.
- Once you have cut all around the top of the truckle, remove the lid.
- Score down the sides of the truckle with your knife three times and peel off the remaining wax.
- In order to identify the cheese, use the lid and place it back on top of the cheese.
