Cow curd<\/strong><\/p>\nIt is produced from cow's milk and consists of: straining the milk, pouring it into a vat followed by heating, adding the rennet (natural lamb rennet). After the milk has been strained, the curds are separated from the whey using a sieve or a gauze cloth (sedline). The curds must be thoroughly squeezed. After draining off the whey, a wheel about 50-60 cm in diameter and 12-14 cm thick is obtained. The quantity of curds produced in two to three days is stored in parallelepiped-shaped boxes in a darkened room. Up to 6-7 wheels of curds fit into a box. It is sold loose or packaged.<\/p>\n
Cow's cheese<\/strong><\/p>\nIt is obtained by soaking cow's milk curd in water at a temperature of about 80\u00b0C, after maturing it beforehand.

The rind or surface is smooth, clean, without wrinkles or hollows, without spots or cracks, yellowish-white in colour.<\/p>\n

Matured cow's milk<\/strong><\/p>\nMatured telemea cheese is a semi-hard cheese made entirely from freshly milked, unpasteurised raw cow's milk by enzymatic coagulation with rennet and processing according to a traditional method. When the whey has drained off, the cheese is removed from the skins and cut into large cubes. The cheese is salted in brine for 20-24 hours, during which time the pieces of cheese are turned 2-3 times, with granular salt sprinkled on the free surface of each piece. The pieces of cheese removed from the brine are left to drain on the crust for 15-20 minutes, after which the dry salting is carried out.<\/p>\n
