In 1801, Admiral Lord Nelson received the cheese a gift from his father. The cheese is made based on the original recipe:[2][3]
When the curds have drained, sprinkle fine salt on, and spread with a feather. Place on a dry shelf, turning them daily. When a fine white mould has covered them they are fit to eat. Bath cheese will demonstrate its ripeness by spreading on bread as butter does with the aid of a knife.[4]
