EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Havarti cheese is named for the Danish experimental farm where it was developed. Also referred to as Tilsit, this semisoft, pale yellow cheese has small irregular holes. Young Havarti is mildly flavored; aged Havarti has a sharp, intense flavor.

Make this upscale cheesecake pretty as a picture by garnishing with sprigs of fresh watercress and bits of sun-dried tomato.
