Bundz is a type of sheep milk cheese traditionally made in the Podhale region of Poland. It is a semi-hard cheese, typically aged for several weeks to develop its characteristic flavor and texture. Bundz is often used in traditional Polish dishes, such as pierogi and kopytka, and is also enjoyed on its own or with bread.

Production

The production of Bundz begins with the collection of sheep's milk. The milk is then heated and rennet is added to cause the milk to curdle. The curdled milk is then cut into small pieces and heated again to separate the curds from the whey. The curds are then pressed into molds and left to age for several weeks. The aging process allows the cheese to develop its unique flavor and texture.

Characteristics

Bundz is a semi-hard cheese with a creamy, slightly crumbly texture. It has a mild, slightly tangy flavor that is often compared to other sheep milk cheeses, such as feta or Roquefort. Bundz is typically white in color, although it can also have a slight yellow hue.

Uses

Bundz is often used in traditional Polish dishes, such as pierogi and kopytka. It can also be enjoyed on its own or with bread. In addition, Bundz is sometimes used in the production of oscypek, another traditional Polish cheese.
