So, what is red leicester?
Red Leicester is a type of British cheese that gets its distinctive orange-red color from the addition of annatto seed during production. It has a firm, crumbly texture and a nutty, slightly sweet flavor with hints of caramel. Aged for anywhere between 3 to 12 months, Red Leicester can vary in taste and texture, but typically becomes sharper and more complex with age. Perfect for melting or snacking, it is often used in traditional British dishes such as cheese on toast, mac and cheese, and as a topping for pies.
