Shifra cheese

Shifra cheese is a unique Israeli cheese that is made using traditional cheese-making techniques. It has a rich, buttery flavor and a soft, creamy texture that is similar to Camembert cheese. Although it is not widely available, it is a popular ingredient in many Israeli dishes and is often used in cheese plates and as a spread. Its limited availability and artisanal production make it a sought-after cheese for Israeli cheese lovers and food enthusiasts.[5][4][2][1][7][6][3]

It is spreadable and often oozes out of its rind when cut. The cheese is usually sold in small, round containers.[5][4][2][1][7][6][3]

Shifra cheese is made from cow's milk and is produced by a small, family-owned cheese-making business in the central region of Israel. The cheese is made using traditional cheese-making techniques, including curdling the milk with rennet and draining the curds. The cheese is then aged for several weeks, during which time it develops its distinctive flavor and texture.[5][4][2][1][7][6][3]

Shifra cheese is a popular ingredient in many Israeli dishes, including sandwiches, salads, and omelets. It is often spread on bread or crackers and can be served as an appetizer or snack. The cheese is said to pair well with fruits and nuts and is often used in cheese plates.[5][4][2][1][7][6][3]

Shifra cheese is produced in small quantities and is not widely available in Israel or abroad. It can be found in specialty food stores and markets that specialize in artisanal cheeses.[5][4][2][1][7][6][3]

There are several variations of Shifra cheese, including flavored varieties that are infused with herbs or spices. These variations are often used in cooking to add additional flavor to dishes.[5][4][2][1][7][6][3]
