Leipäjuusto (bread cheese) or juustoleipä (Swedish: kaffeost), also known in the United States as Finnish squeaky cheese, is a Finnish fresh cheese traditionally made from cow beestings, rich milk from a cow that has recently calved. Reindeer or even goat milk can also be used. The cheese originally comes from Southern Ostrobothnia, Northern Finland, and Kainuu.

Greetings from Finland You did a good job, it was authentic looking. Bread cheese is traditionally made from milk that has been freshly milked. That is, it is not heated on the stove. Traditionally, it is baked on an open fire on a round birch board. Salt is the most important thing in cheese, it determines the taste. Here in Finland, two slightly different names are used for cheese. Either cheese bread, which I think is probably the right one, or bread cheese. The name depends on whether it was made in Lapland or Kainuu. This cheese is very popular here for many different purposes. Thank you for bringing the Finnish tradition of cheese to everyone.

Yes are welcome, and thank you for the extra information about this simple yet wonderful cheese.

@IngloriousBastard1337 2 года назад

An edit, as far as I know it's traditionally made with the first milk that the cow gives after givng birth to a calf. What you get in finnish supermarkets is industrial and neither made with fresh nor with Colostrum Milk, it is always regular pasteurized milk. It is more pale and has less flavour than the traditional stuff made with Colostrum / Ternimaito.

I love educating my customers about this cheese. It was a big hit at our Christmas stroll with hot coffee. I had lots of requests for hot coco so looks like I’ll be selling that with the cheese next year as well. Because chocolate and cheese…why not.

@babygirljewels29 Год назад

I'll try it that way when I attempt to make it fresh this Saturday. Hopefully, I can make it as close to authentic as I'm able.

@jennymossa9492 Год назад

Hello from Finland. I can´t believe you made leipäjuusto! I am a Swedish speaking Finn. We are a small ethnic minority of Finns. We call it "bondost" which literally translates into farmer´s cheese. I think that is because it is the easy and straightforward way that anyone could make cheese quick at home back in the days. I buy leipäjuusto in the supermarket the same way as any other cheese. My daughter likes having it as a snack after school sometimes. Cloudberries are incredibly healthy, so I force myself to have some every now and then. But I am not a huge fan of it. I prefer having my bondost with apricot jam and that works really well, too. Thank you for the great videos you make!

@Komatik_ Год назад

Apricot jam sounds like a good substitute for cloudberry.

@touhulanfarmi5996 2 года назад

Thank you Gavin!! As a finn I've never heard serving it in coffee😅 Cloudberryjam is the most trational way. But we also put cubed Leipäjuusto in savory salads and even use it in Indian dishes as a paneer substitude👌 And traditionally the cheese is grilled in wood heated oven, next to hot coles.

You can also griddle the cheese on a flat top/pan for extra browning. Basically turns them into a cheese stick, as it doenst melt (or shouldnt at least) I buy an American brand that is inspired by this cheese, and it makes great BBQ appetizers when cut into strips, griddled, and served with dried fruit.

Well Gavin I must say I have tried several different recipes for this including one that was basically mozzarella then baked. Not one of them has ever said to drain for 4 hours. This is a game changer. I’m planning on making a ten gallon batch tomorrow. It’s a smash hit at my booth but I have never been satisfied by the texture results I have gotten. So I’m going to do my normal recipe then try the long drain instead of dangerously trying to pour off hot whey from the oven. Thank you.

Great to hear! Thank you for trying my recipe.

@jukkaalatolonen8380 Месяц назад

Greetings from Finland. Here’s one tip for serving leipäjuusto: Wrap a square piece of leipäjuusto in filo pastry and fry in a pan with salted butter. Serve with cloudberry jam. It works great with glass of nice port wine. We usually eat the leipäjuusto at room temperature with coffee, less often in the coffee. Another tip for serving leipäjuusto. We do this every Christmas: Cut the leipäjuusto into cubes of 1.5cm by 1.5cm. Put the cubes in a high-sided oven dish and pour plenty of heavy cream and some sugar on top. Bake in the oven at about 200C for 10-15 minutes. Serve with defrosted cloudberries or during the summer with fresh cloudberries.

@GavinWebber Месяц назад

Thanks for the tips!

@amchez97 2 года назад

Hi Gavin! I tried looking through your videos but didn't notice, have you ever made Dominican/Latin American queso frito? It's a common food item in several Latin American countries, and in the Dominican Republic is a key part of the famous Dominican breakfast "mangú con los tres golpes." Love your videos!

@GavinWebber 2 года назад

Yes, I've just reviewed my catelogue of cheese videos and believe that my Queso Fresco recipe with a slight modification of 1.5 Tbs of salt (instead of just 1) would be perfect to make Queso Frito! Try it.

A tip for using those grills inside an oven. The food being cooked should be way higher than that. With it at that distance you may as well have used the oven function.

When you first said :"place it under the griller" I understood :"place it under the gorilla" and my first thought was :"where do they get gorillas in finland?" Jokes aside, this cheese will be my next try...looks so delicious

@aarontasker4433 Год назад

Made this recently and it was an absolute hit with friends and family. Mixed results on the coffee, as some were too eager to eat it as is! Will definitely be making more as it’s a fairly low-effort make that you don’t have to be super attentive over.

@Skege1000 2 года назад

Another finnish cheese is Uunijuusto, oven cheese. You need 1 litre of colostrum a.k.a. first milk and teaspoon of salt. You need to butter your ovensafe dish. About 50 minutes in 200C. Eat with berries or jam. Don't actually know if that is actual cheese or just dessert that has cheese in its name

@noob19087 Год назад

Great job! Honestly looks better than the Finnish recipes I've come across. Though one gripe is that typically leipäjuusto has a more uneven "leopard spot" type browning. I'd recommend putting it as high in the oven as it goes. Always had it cold myself, also never put it in coffee though I have heard of lapplanders doing it. Tried making some myself yesterday, came out pretty miserable, but I hope next time goes better. By the way, this might be a really annoying question but what type of calcium chloride do you use? Is it the hexahydrate form, dihydrate or anhydrous?

@eddyteea Год назад

many people in Finland hate bread cheese because of the crackling. the best recipe for bread cheese is this one. put a piece of cheese on a plate. pour cream on top. heat in the microwave so that it starts to melt/bubble a little. take it out and put some jam on it. my favorite is strawberry jam. I have to admit. as a Finn, I have never heard of mixing coffee.

leipäjuusto mixing with coffee is northern Finland thing. Koillismaa is well known area where they do that. Kalle Päätalo write his books that often.

Our Puerto Rican friend likes to eat his cheese in coffee and we always made fun of him, ha! Maybe he's part Finnish?! I'm wondering if this would be good tucked into bread dough and then baked? Or in salads in place of fresh mozzarella? Or served with honey drizzled on top and some fresh sprigs of thyme.... Hmmm, now you got me thinking!

@jamesbernadette6216 Год назад

Finn here. It goes wonderfully with salad instead of mozzarella or feta, we use it like that as well. The cheese is a bit on the tougher side so not sure if it'll go well baked in. The cheese itself is called Bread Cheese for the reason that it sort of serves the role of bread while being a cheese. Love the honey + thyme idea tho; Leipäjuusto is traditionally served with sweet cloudberry jam after all.

Pronunciation tip: "Lei", try the start of "Raven" with a clear L instead of R, and "Pä" you can approximate with "Baron" but hard P. Juu in juusto is pretty much correct, just cut the o. You're ending it with "ou", chuck the u and you're good.

@andreujuanc 2 года назад

Why the Calcium Chloride? Was this traditionally added?

@ecliptix1 2 года назад

It helps the rennet coagulate the cheese better. When milk is pasteurized, the high temperature alters the properties of the milk and makes it not coagulate as well.
