Bulgarian Feta


I'm so into sheep's milk these days. I really like cheese made of sheep's milk. They taste more flavorful than cow milk but more delicate than goat milk.

I was not a big fan of Feta cheese. I thought they taste chalky and salty without depth in flavor.

I found this Bulgarian Feta (Sireneon) on igourmet.com and I realized I was wrong about Feta. This feta was creamy but crumbly at the same time. It was not too salty nor too acidic but had very mild milky sheep flavor. I really loved it.

Interesting article about Feta on SF Gate FOCUS ON FETA
Now I feel embarrassed that I said "I do not like Feta" without trying Feta from countries other than Greece.
