Picture of mizithra

Mizithra or Myzithra is a traditional pasteurized cheese made from sheep's milk and some added cream and whey. The cheese is easy to cut, snow-white, creamy, and granular; its flavor is similar to Ricotta Salata and it an ideal cheese for grating. It is made in various sizes and shapes; like a cone or a ball.

Mizithra can be used in an array of both sweet and savory dishes and we sell the cheese as 1 pound (cut in one or two pieces)and you can buy the entire cheese (approximately 1.5 pounds).
