Pultost Cheese

An old Norwegian cheese that is produced as a soft, cooked-curd cheese made from cow's milk. Produced with low-fat milk, Pulpost Cheese is made from a skimmed milk that is heated and allowed to curdle naturally, thus the reason this cheese is often referred to as a sour-milk cheese. As it is processed, the cheese is flavored with caraway seeds and is then produced as either a spreadable cheese or as curds. The spreadable form will have a more intense flavor and aroma than the curds. Pulpost Cheese may also be referred to as Knaost or Ramost Cheese.
