Sheep's Cheese
Sheep Milk Cheese is a cheese made from sheep’s milk, enjoyed in many Mediterranean and European cuisines in everything from sandwiches and salads to pasta, pastries, and cheese boards. It tends to have a rich, tangy, slightly grassy flavor and a creamier, fuller taste than many cow’s milk cheeses. Nutritionally, Sheep Milk Cheese is a concentrated source of protein and calcium, and it also provides vitamin B12. Like most cheeses, it is energy-dense and contains a lot of saturated fat, so portions are usually best kept moderate. Its overall health profile is mixed: it can be a useful way to add protein and minerals, but it is not the lightest everyday dairy choice.
