One of Green Dirt Farm's most versatile and beloved cheeses, this fresh sheep's milk cheese is simply sheep milk, cultures, a tiny amount of natural rennet, and a touch of salt. It’s patterned after Brebis, a traditional French sheep's milk cheese, and is similar in texture to ricotta. The cheese ripens and drains for 48 hours, after which it is promptly packaged. It has a soft, delicate curd and crumbles well when cold but becomes more spreadable as it warms up. For people familiar with Fresh Chèvre, that is a good comparison; but without the gaminess sometimes associated with goat cheese.
 
The Fresh Plain sheep's milk cheese is amazingly versatile and perfect for spreading on sandwiches or crackers, crumbling into salads or sprinkling on pizza and pasta. It also pairs well with crisp and acidic white wines, strawberries, and honey. However, all you really need to enjoy Fresh sheep milk cheese is a spoon!
 
The Fresh Nettle is amazingly versatile and perfect for spreading on sandwiches or crackers, crumbling into salads or sprinkling on pizza and pasta. It specifically pairs well with dry sparkling wines, tomatoes and orange marmalade.
