I shall always be appreciative to Anna-Karin Lindstad of Tine for sharing this recipe with me. it is a marvelous delicacy to give as a gift at Christmas, serve guests, or when you yearn for a little godbit for yourself. Serve with crackers or dark bread.

Dice cheese the size of sugar cubes. Prick with a fork to allow the marinade to be absorbed. Mix all ingredients for marinade in a heavy-bottomed casserole and bring to a boil. Cool. Layer cheese and paprika in a jar and pour marinade over all. Cover and chill. Keeps 2-3 weeks in refrigerator. Let come to room temperature before serving, allowing cheese to come to full-flavor.
