This Fromage Blanc Direct Set starter culture produces a velvety-smooth, soft cheese with a delightfully rich flavor similar to cream cheese. It is very versatile and can be used in cooking or simply spread on your morning toast. This white cheese is also perfect for incorporating your favorite herbs and spices. This culture can be used to produce cheese with a fraction of the calories and cholesterol of cream cheese and can also be used as a substitute for cream cheese or ricotta in cooking. It can be made to have the texture of sour cream or even a thick, drained yogurt. It can be made with either whole or skim milk so that you can make it as lean or as rich as you prefer.
