Cottage cheese made from sour cream and kefir embodies Russian culinary tradition, where simple, natural products are transformed into a delicacy. The combination of sour cream and kefir gives the cheese a delicate, creamy texture, while the fermentation process adds a slight tanginess. Two days under pressure make it dense yet soft, perfect for spreading. Adding dill and garlic fills the cheese with a fresh and spicy aroma, making it a wonderful addition to salads, sandwiches or as a filling for lavash. This cheese is the cozy taste of rustic cuisine created with care and patience.
