What Is Cottage Cheese<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Cottage cheese is a mildly sweet fresh cheese curd. It is both easy to make and nutritious- qualities that make it a perfect candidate for survival recipes. Though the first mentions of cottage cheese date back as far as Homer’s Odyssey, it was during the rationing of World War 1 that its usage became popularized in the western nations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

History<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

During the late 19th century, in Minnesota, farmers started using sour milk to make what is known as modern cottage cheese. A few years later, this practice spread north to British Columbia and this cheese came to be known as “homesteader’s cheese”. This eventually came to be named as cottage cheese- after the humble abodes of the farmers who first produced it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During World War 1, when meat was heavily rationed, posters were printed to popularize cottage cheese as an alternative source of protein. These posters not only marketed cottage cheese as a meat substitute but also as a great way to save milk that is going sour. Its ease of preparation made it the perfect survival food for hard times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since that time till the ’70s, cottage cheese consumption in the United States rose consistently. Today, it is considered to be one of the most diet-friendly foods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ingredients<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
