Leigrøv 1242
Leirgrøv is a white goat's cheese that is made based on lactose-thin production. Leirgrøvostane is named after the stable Leirgrøv. The stølsmjølk type is therefore only prepared in the summer. Goat's milk takes a lot of flavor from the goat's feed, and the goat likes food with flavor in it. That's why the goat's milk diet is stronger in taste and gives the impression of the goat's favorite food - herbs, willows and mountain flowers. Cow's milk from støl is often yellow-coloured by carotene, but goat's milk does not contain carotene, and turns bright green from all the goodies on the mountain pasture. Therefore Leirgrøv colostrum can be light green in colour. Leirgrøv 1242 is stored for a minimum of 12 months.

Prosten is a mature goat's milk cream cheese, what Norwegians like to call chevre. This is made all year round, both from stølsmjøl and winter milk. The provost had the name Presten earlier, after the former (old) priest in Ostebygda, who has now become Provost. He is fond of cooking and very enthusiastic about cheese, and he likes to preach the good news about local cheese making and locally produced cheese.
How about heating the whole cheese in the oven at 200 degrees for 4 minutes? Served with a sweet accompaniment.

The parish kvitosten is a semi-solid white goat's cheese made from freshly strained (unpasteurized) goat's milk, acid culture and rennet.
This cheese represents a tradition that is common to the inner parishes. That's why we call our unsalted kvitost variant Sognakvitost. Sognakvit cheese was, and is, used in the daily diet for dinner and salty food, especially by the older sogs.
The cheese is available in three degrees of maturity: new age (2-3 months), medium age (3-6 months) and well age (6-12 months). It should be kept cool, well wrapped or under a cheesecloth. Temperate before the meal.
