How is cheddar cheese aged?
I love aged cheddar (extra, extra, very sharp type), but have often wondered how it is supposedly "aged" since sometimes I think I can detect the taste of vinegar… And, whenever I leave cheese alone, it gets dry and starts molding…
There is no replacement for time! Aged cheeses are just that, cheese that it set to rest for weeks, months or even years to develop flavor and "sharpness."
The longer you let a cheese age, the more sharp it becomes.
Depending on the style of cheese, the outside may be coated by wax, or brined in a flavoring solution, or coated with a solution containing good, healthy bacteria that help develop the cheese's flavor.
Some cheese are left to age in the open air, some in damp and cold conditions. Roquefort cheeses (among others) are famous because they are aged in a cave.
Regular commercial Cheddar cheese is usually just wrapped in air tight plastic and put into a refrigerated warehouse to age before it is cut into retail size portions.
All cheeses will mold if left exposed to the air - they are the perfect food for many airborne bacteria. Most of which do not penetrate the cheese, just cut off the moldy and/or dry parts and eat the rest. It is perfectly fine.
Oh - and the vinegar taste you are picking up is just part of aging, some cheese types develop that flavor, some do not - but they do not use vinegar in commercial cheese making.

is aged cheese lactose free?
I've heard people say aged cheese is lactose free, but i've also heard otherwise. I'm lactose intolerant and I don't know whether I should try it.
Cheese that's been aged for at least two months has all or at least most of the lactose out of it. I'm lactose intollerant and very sensitive at that, so I don't say this lightly. The source I've listed is from the Yale-New Haven Hospital website. About halfway down the page, they talk about lactose intollerance and aged cheeses. They also name a few commonly aged cheeses. Hope this helps!
