About: Sheep's milk cheese   Sponge Permalink

An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

A rich creamy cheese made entirely from sheep's milk, which is nicely suited to produce a range of textures, from semi-soft to very firm. The milk from sheep ewes is slightly sweeter than that of cow's milk and very rich, since it contains more than twice the amount of butterfat in cow's milk. The flavor can also be enhanced by the array of herbs growing in the areas often grazed by the sheep. It also provides mild overtones of lanolin resulting in a distinctive aroma to the cheese. The sweet milk combined with natural nutty flavors developed from the maturing cheese results in a rich tasting cheese that can range in flavor from mild to very sharp.
