Touloumisio
Touloumisio is a Greek cheese similar to Feta. Curd, which is prepared
in the same way as in making Feta, is put into skin bags. After the whey
is
drained off, the curd is salted on tables, then placed in wooden barrels
until it is firm. Then it is washed thoroughly and cut into small pieces
which are put into skin bags. Either salt brine or milk is poured into the
bags to cover the curd; milk is said to improve the quality of the cheese.
The bags of cheese are placed in a cold warehouse to cure; they are opened
occasionally to permit gas, which is formed by fermentation, to escape.
