Description
Handkäse or hand cheese is a German regional sour milk cheese (similar to Harzer) and is a culinary speciality of Frankfurt am Main, Offenbach am Main, Darmstadt, Langen, and other parts of southern Hesse. It gets its name from the traditional way of producing it: forming it with one's own hands.It is a small, translucent, yellow cheese with a pungent aroma that many people find unpleasant. Often served as an appetizer or as a snack with Apfelwein (Ebbelwoi or cider), it is traditionally topped with chopped onions, locally known as "Handkäse mit Musik" (literally: hand cheese with music). It is usually eaten with caraway on it, but since many people in Germany do not like this spice, in many areas it is served on the side.cheeses - either by smoking, air-drying or salting - provided a handy solution which allowed people to eat the meat over a longer period of time. Before modern refrigeration, this was vital! The reduced water content of the meat and the preservation powers of the salt discouraged the growth of microbes and bacteria. So meat lasted longer, was safe to eat and as an extra bonus, it was tasty too. In order to extend the shelf life of any cooked meat or worst ,in vacuum sealed, bags can be stored for at least 15 days at room temperature
