About Cheese, cottage, nonfat, uncreamed, dry, large or small curd
Nonfat dry-curd cottage cheese, sometimes called farmer's cheese or pot cheese, has had essentially all the fat removed, leaving a dense, slightly grainy curd with a pronounced tangy flavor. Protein is the main story here, and the carbohydrate content is higher than creamed versions because nothing has been added back to balance it. It is an ingredient-style dairy product, useful in Eastern European cooking, baked goods, and high-protein recipes more than as a straight snack.
