Bryndza is a soft sheep's milk cheese eaten in Poland and in several other countries of Central and Eastern Europe. The paste is white, crumbly, and salty, and it spreads more easily than it slices. Makers crumble a fresh sheep cheese, salt it, and work it into a moist mass that is often sold from a tub. The taste is tangy and sharp rather than mild or buttery. It belongs in savory cooking as much as it belongs on bread.
