Sušenje i čuvanje gaude u običnom frižideru (Drying and storing gouda in an ordinary refrigerator)

Gauda sir

Cuvanje gauda sira u frizideru

Kako razlikovati normalnu površinsku buđ od opasne?

Cuvanje gauda sira u frizideru

1. Priprema

- Nakon što je gauda bila u salamuri (ili posoljena), tapkati je papirnim ubrusom da ukloniš višak vlage.

- Ne ispiraj je – so pomaže očuvanju.

2. Površina i podloga

- Stavi sir na rešetku ili tanjir obložen kuhinjskom gazom.

- Ne sme ležati direktno na hladnoj, nepropusnoj površini – vlaga se tada skuplja i stvara buđ.

- Poklopac frižidera ili plastična posuda sa ventilacijom je dobra opcija. Ne zatvaraj hermetički – gauda treba da „diše“.

3. Uslovi u frižideru

- Temperatura: 4–8 °C (standardna fioka ili donja polica)

- Vlažnost: frižider je obično suv, pa je OK za kratko sušenje.

- Sir okreni 1–2 puta dnevno prvih nekoliko dana da se ravnomerno osuši.

4. Trajanje sušenja

- Manji komadi (300–500 g): 1–2 dana

- Veći komadi (500–1500 g): 2–4 dana

- Cilj: površina suva, mat, čvrsta na dodir, bez lepljivosti, ali kora još nije potpuno tvrda.

5. Čuvanje nakon sušenja

- Oko gaude može se staviti papir za pečenje ili pergament i lagano omotati bez hermetičkog zatvaranja.

- Sir može stajati nekoliko nedelja u frižideru.

- Redovno proveravaj da nema vlage ili buđi na površini.

Kako razlikovati normalnu površinsku buđ od opasne?

1. Vrsta: Normalna površinska buđ

Opis: Boja je bela, svetlo siva ili blago plavičasta; tanka, suva i lako se briše

Miris: Neutralan ili blago mlečan

Širenje: Sporo, ne prodire u sir

Napomena: Ovo je normalno i može se obrisati suvom krpom

2. Vrsta: Opasna buđ / kvar

- Opis: Boja je tamno plava, crna, crvena ili zelena; debela, sluzava i prodire u sir

- Miris: Kiselo, trulo ili neprijatan miris

- Širenje: Brzo, prodire u sir i teško se uklanja

- Napomena: Sir je kompromitovan i ne sme se konzumirati

Pravilo:

- Bela površinska buđ je normalna i može se jednostavno obrisati suvom krpom.

- Tamna ili sluzava buđ znači da je sir kompromitovan – bolje baciti, ne konzumirati.

Gouda cheese 

Storing gouda cheese in the refrigerator

How to distinguish normal surface mold from dangerous?

Storing gouda cheese in the refrigerator

1. Preparation

- After the gouda has been in brine (or salted), pat it with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.

- Do not rinse it - salt helps preserve it.

2. Surface and substrate

- Put the cheese on a grid or a plate lined with kitchen cheesecloth.

- It must not lie directly on a cold, impermeable surface - moisture then collects and forms mold.

- A fridge lid or a plastic container with ventilation is a good option. Do not seal hermetically - the gouda needs to "breathe".

3. Conditions in the fridge

- Temperature: 4–8 °C (standard drawer or bottom shelf)

- Humidity: the fridge is usually dry, so it is OK for short drying.

- Turn the cheese 1-2 times a day for the first few days so that it dries evenly.

4. Duration of drying

- Smaller pieces (300–500 g): 1–2 days

- Larger pieces (500–1500 g): 2–4 days

- Goal: the surface is dry, matte, firm to the touch, without stickiness, but the crust is not yet completely hard.

5. Storage after drying

- Baking paper or parchment can be placed around the gouda and lightly wrapped without hermetically sealing.

- Cheese can stay in the fridge for several weeks.

- Check regularly that there is no moisture or mold on the surface.

How to distinguish normal surface mold from dangerous?

1. Type: Normal surface mold

Description: The color is white, light gray or slightly bluish; thin, dry and easy to wipe off

Smell: Neutral or slightly milky

Spreading: Slow, does not penetrate the cheese

Note: This is normal and can be wiped off with a dry cloth

2. Type: Dangerous mold / defect

- Description: The color is dark blue, black, red or green; thick, slimy and penetrates the cheese

- Smell: Sour, putrid or unpleasant smell

- Spread: Fast, penetrates the cheese and is difficult to remove

- Note: The cheese is compromised and must not be consumed

Rule:

- White surface mold is normal and can be simply wiped off with a dry cloth.

- Dark or slimy mold means that the cheese is compromised - better to throw it away, not to consume it.
