Bethmale
cheese from Ariège
Also known as oustet, Behmale was first recorded in the 12th century when it was enjoyed (perhaps enjoyed a little too much) by King Louis VI the Fat. It is a fairly mild, uncooked pressed table cheese, made from a mix of cow, sheep and goat’s milk in the shape of a small wheel, with rice sized holes.
