About DPI SPECIALTY FOODS, MYZITHRA CHEESE
DPI Specialty Foods Myzithra Cheese is made from pasteurized sheep's milk, whey, rennet, salt, and enzymes -- the traditional Greek formula for this whey-and-milk cheese. Per 100 g, it provides 286 calories, 14.3 g protein, 7.1 g carbohydrates, and 21.4 g fat with no fiber. Myzithra is produced in both a soft, fresh form and a firm, aged form used for grating. The aged variety is the traditional complement to Greek-American beurre noisette spaghetti, grated directly over butter-tossed pasta. Made from sheep's milk and whey, it carries a distinctly rich and slightly gamey character compared to cow's milk equivalents. Gluten-free. DPI Specialty Foods distributes specialty and imported cheeses for retail and foodservice markets in the United States.
