If you grew up in one of the former Yugoslavian Republics, Travnicki Sir, a brined white cheese made from sheep’s milk, will remind you of home! Travnicki Sir (which translates to “cheese from Travnik”) is made exclusively in central Bosnia and Herzegovina. Katun White Sheep’s Milk Cheese (Travnicki Sir) is made with milk from sheep grazing on the Vlašic Mountain. As has been done for centuries, we brine and age our delicious cheese in wooden vats for at least 60 days. Akin to Greek Feta and Turkish Beyaz Peynir, Katun White Sheep’s Milk Cheese is crumbly in texture with a tangy, milky, slightly salty flavor. In the Balkans, white cheeses are enjoyed throughout the day starting at breakfast. This delicious cheese is a fixture on meze platters and a popular filling for savory jufka (phyllo) wrapped pies and stuffed breads. Katun White Sheep’s Milk Cheese is just the ingredient you’ll need to make cheese, or cheese and spinach Burek, Pita Sirnica (flaky jufka pies filled with three cheeses) and Pita Zeljanica (spinach and cheese phyllo-wrapped pies). And it’s a “must” for Shopska Salad which includes tomatoes, cucumbers, raw or roasted peppers, onions or scallions and parsley. Our authentic white cheese will add brightness and tang to omelets, salads, sandwiches, grilled fish, meat and veggie dishes, casseroles and pasta dishes. Brined white cheeses are not only delicious but low in fat and a rich source of protein, calcium and gut-healing probiotics. One taste of Katun White Sheep’s Milk Cheese and you will understand why it is one of the most popular cheeses in the region!
