laitanko
Laitanko is a term that refers to a type of fermented dairy product, often described as a cheese. It is traditionally made in certain regions of Eastern Europe and Central Asia. The production process typically involves curdling milk, often using a starter culture or rennet, and then draining the whey to form a solid mass. This mass is then often pressed and aged to develop its characteristic flavor and texture.
The exact composition and preparation of laitanko can vary significantly depending on local customs and ingredients.
