Every good cheese lover must have his or her 10 commandments to worship when faced with cheese, but we’ll deal with that another day. Today we would like to talk to you about The Decalogue of La Antigua, where we have gathered the 10 things about this delicacy that we should all be clear about. We could almost frame it and put it in the kitchen at home.

Each person has his or her own
Just as we all have a perfume that characterizes us or a dish that we can’t refuse, no matter how much we’re stuffed, we all have our own cheese. In the factory, we know perfectly well who are the “pink pepper” or “semi-cured” people. Which one is yours?
Perfect for your bones
Since it is a dairy product, it has a high amount of calcium which is perfect for our bones. Both adults and children should put some emphasis on this aspect, since having strong bones is a great point for our state of health.
Grapes with cheese taste like a kiss. And with wine? Perfect plan!
I’m sure that they give you a little piece of cheese without anything to go with it, like no way. Much better if it comes with a glass of wine, some grapes or some dried fruits. That’s why always in #LaMesaDeLaAntigua we put a lot of fruit, because it doesn’t taste the same, it tastes better.

Variety is the spice of life. There is a wide variety of references.
It’s always good to have a choice, or rather, it’s great. If we only had one type of cheese, we’d end up getting bored no matter how much of a #cheeselover we were. That’s why we have to thank the master cheesemakers who, trial after trial, create new synergies that we love.
Cheese makes your immune system very strong.
We have to have our bodies ready to withstand the heat waves, air conditioning and breezes, lest we catch a cold in summer, can you imagine? Eating cheese makes our immune system stronger and therefore we are not as prone to catching colds or getting sick.
If you are sad, it will make you happy. It is a natural antidepressant.
Cheese contains casein, a substance that when digested and mixed with gastric juices produces casomorphin. This substance produces in us a feeling of relaxation and well-being. Have you noticed it when you eat it?

Perfect for your diet, your cousin’s or neighbor’s diet. Ideal for everyone!
It is a dairy product that can be perfectly combined with a balanced diet. Due to the large number of cures and types that exist, you can combine them without abusing them and include them in your daily life. Don’t exclude them from your diet!
It is necessary for everyone to know about cheese culture.
Many children do not know where milk comes from or what process is used to make cheese. That is why it is so important to involve them in the culture, its history and its elaboration process. At Quesería La Antigua this is one of our maxims, that’s why we carry out #LaAntiguaEduca where children learn all about the sheep, the product and elaborate their own.

Ideal for athletes. Run, jump or dance, but eat cheese.
In all its varieties, it is recommended for those who do sports, of any kind. It is a dairy product with a lot of vitamin D and calcium, ideal for strong bones.
A piece of cheese is a better snack.
Often when it’s time for a snack, especially for the little ones, we go for the quick and resort to ultra-processed foods. But we should change our habits and give them something healthier. How about a little cheese?
