Bulgarian Feta Cheese

Bulgarian Feta Cheese

Everyday

Bulgarian Feta Cheese is a brined dairy product traditionally made from 100% sheep's milk or a sheep-goat milk blend, distinguished by its creamy yet crumbly texture and tangy, slightly acidic flavor. This Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) cheese contains higher fat and protein content compared to cow's-milk cheeses, while its brine preservation contributes to a notable sodium concentration. A staple in Balkan cuisine, it is commonly crumbled over salads, baked into savory pastries, or served as a bold table cheese, though its lactose content and salt levels may require moderation for specific dietary needs.
