from http://www.deliaonline.com/ingredients/ingredientsatoz/i_0000000076.asp: Curd cheese is similar to cream cheese but with a lower fat content and it, like cottage cheese, has had a lactic starter added. This gives it a light acidity and a light flavour, colour and texture. It is sometimes called medium-fat soft cheese. I like it best of all for cheesecakes because it gives them a lighter flavour and texture. so its like ricotta? --- In , "Hana Rous" <ana@r...> wrote: > Curd cheese is a smooth cheese made from curdled milk.
