Emmenthaler is excellent as a table and snack cheese; enjoy it in sandwiches, and serve it with fruit as a dessert cheese. It is one of the cheeses traditionally used (sometimes combined with Gruyère) in quiche Lorraine and in fondues.
Appenzeller is another variety of cheese made in Switzerland, and resembles Emmenthaler. Other versions of Swiss cheese are made in most of the major cheese-producing nations of the world, including Austria, Denmark, Finland, the Netherlands, and the United States. Most of the Swiss-style cheeses made in other countries tend to have a milder taste than the characteristic slightly bitter tang of genuine Swiss cheese, but they may be less expensive because they are produced locally.
