Draft:Albanian white cheeese

Albanian white cheese commonly known as "Djathë i bardhë" in Albanian, is a traditional cheese found in Albania and the broader Balkan region. This cheese is part of the brined cheese family, which includes varieties like feta from Greece. It's made primarily from sheep's or cow's milk, although goat's milk can also be used. The cheese has a distinctive tangy flavor, a crumbly texture, and is preserved in a brine solution, which gives it its characteristic salty taste.

Description
This cheese is a staple in Albanian cuisine and is used in a variety of dishes, including salads, pies (such as byrek), and as an accompaniment to bread or fresh vegetables. It's also commonly served as part of a traditional Albanian breakfast, alongside olives, tomatoes, and eggs.

The production process of Albanian white cheese involves curdling the milk with rennet, then draining the whey before pressing and shaping the curds. The cheese is then salted and aged in brine, which helps to develop its flavor and preserve it for a longer period. The aging process can vary, leading to variations in the cheese's texture and taste, from mild to very tangy and salty.
