Stefania, telemeaua = feta cheese
Ştefania Iordan May 8, 2012:
de acord cu "urda (cheese)", iar branza in romana denumeste telemeaua, o branza fara echivalent in alte limbi, in vreme ce celelalte tipuri de branza, cele galbene, sunt denumite "cascaval" (fie ele svaiter, gouda, cheddar etc, asa sunt percepute) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caşcaval http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telemea

urda

Asa cum s-a sugerat si in cazul altor termeni care tin de bucataria sau cultura/traditia (culinara) romaneasca, poate ca cea mai buna abordare ar fi sa fie pastrat termenul in romana (cum am vazut sugestiile colegilor pentru ,drob', ,pasca', de exemplu), eventual cu explicatia aferenta in engleza. Nu cred ca traduce nimeni Gouda, de exemplu, ci adauga, poate, cheese: Gouda cheese.

Asa ca, oricat s-ar forta un termen strain, nu ar fi exact. Chiar daca seama cu Ricotta si chiar seamana, nu e acelasi lucru.

Urda este un fel de soft cottage cheese, a Romanian fresh white cheese, actually, made from whey of sheep, goat or cow. Urdă is produced by heating the whey resulting from the draining of any type of cheese. It is often made ​​into molds to the shape of a half sphere. The paste is finely grained, silky and palatable.

"The process of making it is somewhat similar to the one for Italian fresh ricotta cheese. In some areas, its texture and taste are similar to ricotta, but in Transylvania its texture and taste are very different.[citation needed]"

"Transylvanian whey cheese, Urda transilvaneana
