Finnish squeaky cheese, known as "leipäjuusto" or "juustoleipä," is a traditional cheese made from cow's milk that's often enjoyed during celebrations and family gatherings in Finland. The cheese-making process starts by heating fresh cow's milk until it curdles, after which it is cut into small, square-shaped pieces. These curds are then baked or grilled, resulting in a golden-brown crust on the outside while maintaining a soft and squeaky interior. In Finland, the finished squeaky cheese is often served as a snack or a part of a meal. It is enjoyed in various ways, highlighting its unique texture and flavor. One popular serving method is to pair the cheese with lingonberry jam, which complements the mild sweetness of the cheese with a tart and tangy note. Some also enjoy it drizzled with maple syrup for a delightful sweet-savory combination. Finnish squeaky cheese is versatile and can be incorporated into dishes, such as salads or sandwiches, adding a unique textural element.
