Kashkaval cheese, also called - kashkavan, is commonly referred to as "the Cheddar of the Balkans". This cheese is slightly tangy, semi-firm, with a smooth surface. It has a nutty taste and is exceptional when paired with fresh fruit or displayed on a cheeseboard with olives. Kashkaval has a well-defined and indulgent taste that livens up any dish. It's excellent for salads, pizza, quesadillas, or shredded on top of pasta, and it withstands heat well, making it an ideal cheese for grilling.
