Cheese from Switzerland
Raw cow milk from silage-free farms is set in a copper vat with lactic and propionic cultures, cut and cooked to 52–54 °C, then pressed into wheels of 75–120 kg and brined. In a warm cellar at 19–24 °C propionic bacteria make the gas that opens its large round eyes, and the wheels then ripen in a cooler cellar for at least four months. Made in 8 steps over 5.1 months – 6.5 months. The longest step, ripen in the storage cellar, takes at least 4 months (Office fédéral de l'agriculture OFAG 2002) and runs at 11–14 °C (Office fédéral de l'agriculture OFAG 2002). Lactic acid bacteria cultures of defined make-up from the production area and Thermophilic starters Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus helveticus, still active to the end of ripening do most of the fermenting.

Total time across the recorded steps: 5.1 months – 6.5 months
What changes: Starting material: raw milk from cows fed no silage, at most a day old
Farms lie within 20 km of the dairy as the crow flies. Bactofugation, ultrafiltration and microfiltration are forbidden. Output: raw cow milk.

Emmentaler's mark is its propionic fermentation. A spell of weeks in a warm cellar lets propionic bacteria make the gas that opens its big eyes and gives its sweet, nutty taste, which most alpine hard cheeses such as Gruyère avoid. Its wheels are also among the largest made, up to 120 kg.
Made from raw milk, but cooked to 52–54 °C, pressed and ripened at least four months. ANSES exempts pressed cooked cheeses such as Gruyère and Comté from its advice to avoid raw-milk cheese, and Emmentaler is made in the same way.
Every number is labelled with how it is known. How this atlas is made
Emmentaler takes its name from the Emmental valley in Bern and has been made there since the 12th century; a Langenthal register first names it in 1542. It was first made only on the alps, and the first valley dairy opened at Kiesen in 1813. From 1840 it spread across German-speaking Switzerland and was exported. It was registered as a protected designation of origin in 2002.
