Armenian string cheese is an exotic change from fresh mozzarella if
you are looking for a mild, milky cheese with stretch, Evansville
Courier & Press writes.
"Like mozzarella, Armenian string cheese is a filata cheese. This
means after the curds are formed, they are drained, then heated, salted
and pulled, doubled and pulled again and again, somewhat like taffy,
to form the elastic texture and fine separable strings we associate
with string cheeses. Then they are doubled up in pretty knots and
stored in brine or packaged in Cryovac. The cheese is sold fresh,
with no aging," the website writes.
Pretty little black nigella seeds sprinkled throughout the cheese
supply texture and a sharp, oregano-like flavor. The cheese is
most attractive served with the strings pulled apart into a pile of
fluffy threads.
"Armenian string cheese can be used just like fresh mozzarella, and
is very suited for eating cold as a snack, on a sandwich, with flat
bread and relish, or in a salad. It may also be melted in a pita or
atop flatbread, or even used as a pizza cheese," the article reads.
