Los quesos de Gloucester se hicieron en una época sólo con vacas de Gloucester, raza de ganado hoy prácticamente extinta. Hay dos tipos de queso Gloucester: simple […] y doble […] el Gloucester simple se hace con leche desnatada combinada con una pequeña cantidad de leche entera, mientras que el Gloucester doble se hace sólo con leche entera. Ambos tipos de queso tienen una corteza natural y textura dura, pero el Gloucester simple tiene una textura que se desmigaja con facilidad, más ligera y menos graso. Al Gloucester doble se le deja envejecer durante más tiempo que al simple, y tiene un sabor más fuerte. También es algo más firme. Ambas clases se producen en forma redondeada, pero el Gloucester doble es más grande. 1, record 1, Spanish, - queso%20doble%20Gloucester
