Cornish Yarg is a semi-hard cow’s milk cheese made in Cornwall United Kingdom from the milk of Friesian cows. Before being left to mature this cheese is wrapped in nettle leaves to form an edible though mouldy rind. The texture varies from creamy and soft immediately under the nettle coating to a Caerphilly cheese-like crumbly texture in the middle. Modern production is at Pengreep farm near Truro by Lynher Dairies from an old recipe.
