5 Popular Cheese not Made from Cow's Milk
Cheese is made from different types of milk and may not always be the right choice for people on a special diet or suffering from specific allergies. If cow’s milk cheese is not right for you, then have a look at our top five cheeses that are popular, easily available made other than cow’s milk.
Pecorino
Popular among the Italians, Pecorino is made from sheep’s milk and is included in a variety of restaurant ingredients. The cheese comes in multiple flavours, including red chilli or black peppercorns. Besides enjoying it in pasta, the cheese is a good substitute for parmesan as well.
Roquefort
Roquefort is made from sheep’s milk and is popularly made in France. This blue-veined cheese is soft and crumbly in texture with a tangy flavour. Nicknamed as the ‘cheese of kings and popes’, you can enjoy it with some nice bread as well as with figs and nuts.
Feta Cheese
One of the most popular types of cheese, especially among diet lovers, Feta Cheese originates from Greece and is made either with goat’s milk, sheep’s milk or a combination of both. The creamy, crumbly cheese has a strong nutty flavour, which works well with beer, Pinot Noir or even Zinfandel.
Buffalo Mozzarella
Made in Italy, Buffalo Mozzarella is exclusively made only from the milk of a water buffalo. Smooth, creamy and white, it is unlike other types of cheese because it is sold and eaten fresh. The cheese is well-known for being used in pizza and lasagna.
Manchego
Manchego is a popular sheep’s milk cheese that is semi-soft with a firm buttery texture. Originating in Spain, this cheese works well with sherry and is usually aged for different months and sold in a variety. The freshest serving is after two weeks of ageing, while the Viejo variety is after 1-2 years of ageing.
