Taste & texture

Chechil is a classic string cheese from the Caucasus. The fresh curd is stretched into long, thin threads and twisted into sticks, so you can pull it apart strand by strand. It is pleasantly salty and milky, firm and chewy, and very satisfying as a snack.

Ideas to try

• Pulled into thin strands and served with cold beer
• Tossed into a green salad or a tomato and cucumber salad
• On a cheese board with fruit, nuts and flatbread
• As a protein snack for school, work or the gym

Good to know

For the best texture, keep chechil wrapped in the fridge and pull it into threads just before eating. If you love fun snacking cheeses, try our fresh cheese curds.
