Domiati cheese (Template:Langx), also referred to as "white cheese" (Template:Langx, Script error: No such module "IPA".), is a soft white salty cheese made primarily in Egypt,[1] but also in Sudan and other Middle Eastern countries. Typically made from buffalo milk, cow milk, or a mixture, it can also be made from other milks, such as sheep, goat or camel milk. It is the most common Egyptian cheese. Unlike feta and other white cheeses, salt is added directly to the milk, before rennet is added. It is named after the seaport city of Damietta (Script error: No such module "Lang".).[2]
Production
Domiati production involves pasteurizing milk briefly, then salting a portion of it before adding rennet. This method results in a high-moisture, salty cheese, distinct from feta due to its pre-rennet salting. Domiati can be enjoyed fresh or aged in brine for a few months, enhancing its pickled flavor, the cheese gets more acidic as it ages.[3][2]
Usually, no starter culture is added, instead, the bacteria is already present in the milk used will cause the fermentation, the salting and ripening processes give the cheese a feta like texture and taste, it is brittle rather than elastic when broken.[2]
