This cheese is made in styles similar to both chevre and cottage cheese. The texture is drier than American cottage cheese and the flavor is somewhat tangy like chevre, but milder. It is eaten traditionally as a "breakfast cheese" with sweet accompaniments like jam and honey.
Made with Kilgus Farmstead Jersey cow milk. Produced by Prairie Fruit's new cheese maker from Ukraine, Tetyana Dyadechko.
Wes Jarrell and Leslie Cooperband are the proud owners of Prairie Fruits Farm & Creamery located in rural Champaign-Urbana, Illinois. A licensed Grade A goat dairy and farmstead creamery. Their herd is certified "Animal Welfare Approved" since 2010 by "A Greener World."
