About Armenian String Cheese

Armenian String Cheese is a traditional cheese originating from Armenia, often made from cow's, goat's, or sheep's milk. This semi-soft cheese is characterized by its white color and stringy texture, making it fun to pull apart and eat. It has a mild flavor, which makes it a popular snack or appetizer. Known also as Syrian String Cheese or Chechil, it is sometimes braided or knotted into shapes. The cheese is often seasoned with nigella or caraway seeds, adding a subtle hint of spice. Armenian String Cheese is commonly enjoyed on its own, with bread, or as part of a cheese platter.
