A gassy cheese is characterized by the presence of many round holes which usually are regular in shape but vary in size. They differ from the holes present in a normally open-textured cheese, which are mechanical openings due to failure of the curd particles to adhere to one another during pressing of the cheese. 2, record 2, English, - open%2Dtextured%20cheese
