What Is Hoop Cheese?

Hoop Cheese: A Curds and Whey Delight

One of the oldest cheeses in the world, Hoop Cheese offers a unique texture and flavor that has captured the hearts of cheese enthusiasts for centuries. Also known as “Farmers Cheese” or “Pot Cheese”, Hoop Cheese is a fresh, unaged cheese made from simple ingredients: milk, salt, and rennet. Its distinctive name comes from the hoops or molds used to shape the curd into wheels.

Unlike most cheeses, Hoop Cheese retains much of its whey after coagulation and pressing. This results in a moist, crumbly texture that can be easily broken apart. Its flavor is mild and slightly sour, with notes of buttermilk and cream. Versatile in its culinary applications, Hoop Cheese can be eaten on its own, spread on bread, or used in salads and dips.
