#REDIRECT [[Urda (cheese)]]
'''Urdă''' (Romanian pronunciation: [ˈurdə]) is a [[Romania]]n fresh white [[cheese]] made from [[whey]] of [[sheep]], [[goat]] or [[cow]].
Urdă is produced by heating the whey resulting from the draining of any type of cheese. It is often made into molds to the shape of a half sphere. The paste is finely grained, silky and palatable.
Since urdă is produced by Romanian shepherds since time immemorial in Romania, this product is considered a traditional Romanian dairy product.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.dadrsibiu.ro/index.php/atestat-produse-traditionale/precizari-intocmirea-caietului-de-sarcini.html|title=site officiel de la Directia pentru Agricultura si Dezvoltare Rurala Sibiu|publisher=}}</ref> It is used especially in the preparation of several desserts as [[clătită]] and [[plăcintă]].
