Crowdie is a fresh cheese from Scotland, in the United Kingdom, and it is made from cow's milk. It is soft, crumbly, and lightly sour, closer to a fresh curd than to a pressed wheel. The curd is set with acid, so the flavor stays mild and clean. The paste is white and moist, with no rind at all. People eat it soon after making, while it is still soft.
