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.
