What is the difference between 35+ and 48+ cheese?

The 48+ cheese is made from whole (fat) milk, our Veenlijner is made from semi-skimmed milk (less fat).
Veenlijner is a cheese with a full flavor but less fat and less salt, so you can still enjoy a tasty cheese and eat consciously.
The number before the + indicates the amount of fat in the cheese, more precisely the amount of fat in the dry matter, i.e. the amount that would remain if you removed all the moisture from the cheese.

35+ cheese contains 35% fat?

A 35+ cheese does not consist of 35% fat. The dry matter consists of 35% fat. A little calculation: cheese consists of about 40% moisture and 60% dry matter. Then 100 grams of 35+ cheese contains 40 grams of moisture and 60 grams of dry matter. Of that dry matter, 35% is fat. 35% of 60 grams is 21 grams. conclusion a kilo of young Veenlijner contains 210 grams of fat, and a kilo of young Veense Gouda 48+ contains 288 grams in short: 100% taste with 28% less fat!
