view glossary term online: https://www.recipetips.com/glossary-term/t--35421/butte-cheese.asp

A French cheese made with cow's milk in which extra cream is added before the milk coagulates. The extra cream gives the cheese a rich, smooth texture. The flavor of the cheese is slightly salty with a hint of bitterness. If the cheese is allowed to ripen for a longer period, the flavor becomes much sharper. The yellowish-white cheese is sold in small, puffy blocks and it is generally used as a table cheese.
