Where is the cabin cheese? The fourth-floor-walkup cheese? Give me the fancy mansion cheese. Or skyscraper cheese, ooh la la.

Leave the bathhouse cheese alone, though

    I read some stuff and its not exactly clear why it’s called that. it could possibly be how poor people living in the countryside would usually have access to fresh milk from having a cow, and the process to make cottage cheese is less refined, so a city dweller used to fancier cheese would consider the cheap cheese more befitting of someone who lives in a cottage

      That doesn’t make sense. Villagers know perfectly well how to make cheese and the cow is the most expensive part of the process. You add some acid to make the curd, add your starter culture from the sheep stomach, and have that rest for some time in a cool and dark space. After a while start salting it, if you have salt available.
