This week’s fan photo winner is Appel Farms Cheese, who posted their flavorful shot of saffron manchego. Manchego, a semi-soft to firm sheep’s milk cheese, typically has a creamy white interior, but the added saffron has given the pictured wheel a rich yellow-orange hue. We can only imagine that the added spice has imparted it’s warm, pungent, and slightly sweet flavor to the cheese as well.

Congrats, Appel Farms! Look for your free issue in the mail. Keep on cheesin’!
