Cheese bandaging. The first step was to coat the surface of the cheese with a form of grease that would provide a fixative and close up any surface deficiencies. Pig fat was in common use ... After larding the cheese would then be secured with a roller bandage wound round from bottom to top. Stitched in position it would then be stamped for identification, and placed carefully on the cheese shelf. A drying-out period of one or two days would then ensue.
