Gouda is a yellow cheese made from cow's milk. It is usually shaped into round wheels and has a smooth, firm texture. Young Gouda is soft and mild, while older Gouda is harder and has a stronger flavor.

Gouda originated in the Netherlands and is named after the town of Gouda. It is often sold with a red wax coating to help preserve it.
