Cheese is everybody’s favourite! From kids who can afford to have as much as they want, to adults who know it can be fattening, nobody can resist the temptation of digging into a cheesy delight. And this is a phenomenon in which all peoples of the world unite!
There are different types of cheese, from our fresh and indigenous paneer to exotic versions that are fermented for years, from varieties that retain their graininess to those that melt like a soft glue, from those that taste plain to those with a bit of sourness, cheeses across the world have their own signature taste and texture, which impacts the dish they are used in too.
Some dishes use a single variety of cheese like the Cheese Paratha, while others use a combination of varieties to get the right texture and taste like the Four Cheese Pizza. Cheese can be added as a garnish on baked dishes, or cooked with the dish to get a nice, gooey finish like the Cheese Poppers, Cheese Chilli Toast or the Mexican Cheese Fondue. Cheese can be had hot and molten, or cold and grated. Basically, it can cater to you, whatever your preference might be!
