Anari is a traditional Cypriot cheese made primarily from the whey of sheep or goat milk. This cheese is known for its unique texture and flavor, and unlike many other aged cheeses, Anari is typically fresh and soft, often described as having a mild, slightly sweet taste with a subtle tang and a creamy texture.
Anari cheese is usually produced in small, artisanal batches, reflecting its local origins. It is commonly used in both sweet and savory dishes, such as pastries, salads, and as a filling for pies. In Cyprus, it is often enjoyed with honey or fresh fruit, highlighting its delicate flavor profile.
Anari’s role extends beyond traditional dishes; it also holds a place in Cypriot culture and celebrations. Its light flavor and rich history make it a cherished ingredient in both everyday meals and festive occasions.
