'''Cottage cheese''' is a type of [[cheese]] that is known for its distinct curdled appearance and mild flavor. It is a [[fresh cheese]] product, meaning it does not undergo an aging or ripening process to develop flavor.

== History ==
The origins of cottage cheese can be traced back to [[ancient times]], where it was made as a way to utilize leftover [[milk]]. The name "cottage cheese" is believed to have originated in the [[18th century]] when the cheese was made in cottages from any milk left over after making butter.

== Production ==
Cottage cheese is made from the [[curds]] of [[cow's milk]], either whole, part-skimmed or skimmed. It is typically washed to remove the [[acid]] and leave a sweet taste. It is then drained but not pressed, so some whey remains and the individual curds remain loose. The curd is usually washed to remove acidity, giving sweet cottage cheese. It is also available in creamed, whipped, and lactose-free varieties.

== Nutritional Value ==
Cottage cheese is a rich source of [[protein]], [[calcium]], and [[vitamin B12]]. It is also low in [[fat]] and [[calories]], making it a popular choice for those following a [[healthy diet]] or [[weight loss]] plan.

== Uses ==
Cottage cheese can be eaten in a variety of ways. It is often consumed on its own or with fruit and sugar, salt and pepper, or other seasonings. It can also be used in cooking and baking, and is a common ingredient in dishes such as [[lasagna]], [[salads]], and [[pancakes]].
