Sheep's Milk Spread from Green Dirt Farm

About this item

One of of Green Dirt's most versatile and beloved fresh sheep milk cheeses, this is simply sheep milk, cultures, a tiny amount of natural rennet, and a touch of salt. It’s patterned after Brebis, a traditional French sheep milk cheese, and is similar in texture to ricotta. 

Spreadable Sheep's Milk cheese is lactic style and fresh, meaning it’s an un-aged cheese. The cheese ripens and drains for 48 hours, after which it is promptly packaged. This sheep milk cheese has a soft, delicate curd. It crumbles well when cold, and becomes more spreadable as it warms up. For people familiar with Fresh Chèvre, that is a good comparison; but without the gaminess sometimes associated with goat cheese.

Try several flavors of fresh sheep milk cheese for your next get together. Perfect for dip lovers. Think of it like fancy boursin!
