This is one of the most famous cheeses in Greece. It is made in various sizes, often as a loaf-shape. It is solid, but crumbly with some fissures. Pure white, it has a milky fresh acidity. Originally made with either ewe's milk or a mixture of ewe's and goat's milk, but today most is made with pasteurized milk and tastes of little besides salt. Some people are put off by the strong salt content but the salt is intended only as a preservative and is not supposed to overpower the taste of the cheese. Can be soaked in fresh, cold water or milk for a few minutes or longer, if necessary, to make it less salty. It has a fat content of 40 - 50%.
