cottage cheese
Fresh cheese with curds
Cottage cheese is a soft, fresh cheese made from curds of milk, characterized by its lumpy texture and mild, slightly tangy flavor.
Unlike aged cheeses, it retains much of its moisture and is eaten fresh.
It comes in varieties ranging from dry to creamy, depending on how much whey or cream remains.
Long associated with dieters for its high protein and low fat content, cottage cheese has become a versatile ingredient in both sweet and savory dishes.
