Edam cheese is a semi-hard cheese with a lower fat content than other cheeses. It has a slight salty or nutty flavor and almost no smell. As Edam cheese ages, the flavor becomes sharp and the cheese hardens. Edam travels well as it does not spoil.

Edam cheese is traditionally sold in spheres with a pale yellow interior and a coat of red paraffin wax.

Edam cheese originated in the Netherlands and is named for the town of Edam in the province of North Holland.
