  • About

This is fresh curd cheese made from pasteurized skimmed cows’ milk sometimes enriched with cream. Its consistency varies from soft, light and pourable to relatively firm and thick. The taste also ranges from mildly acid to rich, according to the amount of cream added, and this also affects the fat content which ranges from almost nil to eight per cent. Traditionally French, fromage frais is now also made in many other countries. It is widely used in cooking and is also eaten fresh as a dessert – often with fruit. (257)
