White Cheese

White cheese is a soft, fresh cheese with a mild milky flavour and snow-white colour. It is made from cow, sheep or goat milk and belongs to the category of unripened cheeses. In the kitchen it is highly versatile, suitable for salads, spreads, stuffed dishes and as part of breakfast. Popular varieties include Balkan white cheese and Greek feta, although the term can refer to various regional types. It crumbles well and pairs beautifully with fresh vegetables, herbs and olive oil. When heated, it retains its shape, making it suitable for grilling or pan-frying. Its mild flavour makes it a favourite with children and works in both savoury and lightly sweet recipes.
