Definition: Named for the island where it originated, this national cheese of Denmark is made from cow's milk and contains about 45 percent milk fat. It's a Swiss-style cheese with a yellow interior accented with small irregular holes. Samsoe has a distinctive, mild, nutlike flavor that's suitable for almost any use from cooked dishes to salads and sandwiches. See also cheese.
