> What's Juustoleipa
Glad you asked! Juustolepia is a Finnish bread cheese that you can fry or bake. Unlike other cheese, it doesn't melt when you fry it: it just browns instead. Instead of using live cultures, Juustoleipa is curdled with a chemical culture (basically calcium chloride) that does not break down all the sugars in the cheese; the resulting a cheese also has a really low pH. The high natural sugar content means the cheese browns beautifully instead of melting when you fry it, which is pretty cool.
- soperj 5y agoIs that kind of like Halloumi cheese?
- isaacimagine 5y agoPretty similar, but Halloumi is traditionally made with goat/sheep milk, whereas Juustoleipa is Cow or Reindeer(!) milk.
