Reblec or réblèque[1] is a fresh, small-rimmed cheese made from spontaneously surfaced cream, to which whole raw milk is added.[2]

If cream is also added during production, it takes the name reblec de crama,[3] which means 'cream reblec' in Valdôtain dialect.

Etymology

[edit | edit source]

The name comes from the Valdôtain dialect term reblètsé, meaning to empty the cows' teats after milking, reiterative of the verb blètsé, meaning 'to milk'.[4]

Reblec follows the same etymology as Reblochon.

Production and consumption

[edit | edit source]

Reblec is mainly produced in the Aosta Valley and it can be consumed as early as 12 hours after it is made.

It is also served as a dessert, topped with sugar, cinnamon or with a dusting of chocolate.
