Question

what is cottage cheese? what type of dishes this cheese can be used. Thank you.

Answer 1

Cottage cheese is a cheese curd product with a mild flavor. It is drained, but not pressed so some whey remains. The curd is usually washed to remove acidity giving sweet curd cheese. It is not aged or colored. Different styles of cottage cheese are made from milks with different fat levels and in small curd or large curd preparations

Cottage cheese is eaten straight where it is like the curds of the nursery rhyme food "curds and whey". It is also eaten in salads, with fruit or as an ingredient in recipes like jello salad and various desserts, such as cottage doubles, a ready-made package with cottage cheese and fruit preserves. Also, it can be used to replace grated cheese or ricotta cheese in most recipes (such as Lasagna).

Cottage Cheese is curds and whey.
Serve it to Miss Muffett, on her tuffett.
she'll scare the poor spider away.

Cottage cheese derived its name from 'cottages' where the cheeses are made, literally. It is prepared atop stoves homes found in the rural areas. People who originally manufactured the 'real thing' let nature take its course by leaving the milk to coagulate and turn sour.

Cottage Cheese is small curds of soft, white cheese in a delicious cream base. Milk is pasteurized at 161° for 16 seconds. In the case of lowfat cottage cheese, the cream is skimmed off. Culture and microbial enzymes are sometimes added and cheese forms. Then the cheese is cooled and cut into smooth, firm curds. The curds are heat treated and the whey is drained off. A dressing is made with cream, salt, and other organic ingredients and mixed into the curds. The curds are then vat set before packaging.

What nutrients can one get from eating cottage cheese? Again, as compared to all other cheeses, this type of cheese has low fat (5 grams where 3 grams are saturated fat), low carbohydrates (3 grams) and high in protein content (14 grams).

If you are aiming for a sculpted body that is full of muscles and well toned, then cottage cheese diet is the right diet for you. Most people overlook the low carbohydrate content of this cheese. But looking at it, this low-carb food, which is high in protein, feeds the body of its needed nutrients during a strict diet.
