t, goat cheese is always notable or noble. Gold-N-Rich _U.S.A._ Golden in color and rich in taste. Bland, as American taste demands. Like Bel Paese but not so full-flavored and a bit sweet. A good and deservedly popular cheese none the less, easily recognized by its red rind. Gomost _Norway_ Usually made from cow's milk, but sometimes from goat's. Milk is curdled with rennet and condensed by heating until it has a butter-like consistency. (_See_ Mysost.) Gorgonzola _Italy_ Besides the standard type exported to us (_See_ Chapter 3.) there is White Gorgonzola, little known outside Italy where it is enjoyed by local caseophiles, who like it put up in crocks with brandy, too. Gouda _see_ Chapter 3. Gouda, Kosher _Holland_ The same semihard good Gouda, but made with kosher rennet. It is a bit more mellow than most and, like all kosher products, is stamped by the Jewish authorities who prepare it. Goya _Corrientes, Argentine_ Hard, dry, Italian type for grating. Like all fine Argentine cheeses the milk of pedigreed herds fed on prime pampas grass distinguishes Goya from lesser Parmesan types, even back in Italy. It is interesting that the nitrate in Chilean soil makes their wines the best in America, and the richness of Argentine milk does the same for their cheeses, most of which are Italian imitations and some of which excel the originals. Gournay _Seine, France_ Soft, similar to Demi-sel, comes in round and flat forms about 1/4 pound in weight. Those shaped like Bondons resemble corks about 3/4 of an inch thick and four inches long. Grana _Italy_ Another name for Parmesan. From "grains", the size of big shot, that the curd is cut into. Grana Lombardo _Lombardy_ The same hard type for grating, named after its origin in Lombardy. Grana Reggiano _Reggio, Italy_ A brand of Parmesan type made near Reggio and widely imitated, not only in Lombardy and Mantua, but also in the Argentine where it goes by a pet name of its own--Regianito. Grande Bornand, la _Switzerland_ A luscious half-dried sheep's milker. Granular curd _see_ Stirred curd. Gras, or Velvet Kaas _Holland_ Named from its butterfat content and called "Moors Head", _Tete de Maure_, in France, from its shape and size. The same is true of Fromage de Gras in France, called _Tete de Mort_, "Death's Head". Gras is also the popular name for Brie that's made in the autumn in France and sold from November
