What is White Cheese?

Typically produced from cow’s milk, white cheese is a group of cheeses that includes a wide variety of traditional cheeses like Mozzarella, Feta and Ricotta. 

Is White Cheese the Same as Yellow Cheese?

Although the two are very similar in terms of taste, due to the differences in production, there are some light differences between these two cheeses, in addition to colour. Firstly yellow cheese has a softer texture and higher fat content, whereas white cheese is usually drier and has a more crumbly texture. Due to its texture, white cheese is easier to spread over crackers or bread.

In terms of flavour, yellow cheese normally has a stronger tangy flavour, while white cheese has a saltier, milder taste. This is due to the fact that when producing white cheese, the curds are drained for a shorter amount of time.
