I think I recently posted a recipe for a cheese salad here from my Middle 
Eastern medieval feast which called for a cheese that was curds that had been 
drained of the whey. I have tried many things including ricotta and farmer's 
cheese for this recipe but cottage is the only one that works well and 
produces a dish which would have been fit for a caliph as it were. :-) IMO. 
cottage cheese is definitely period. The basic curds are the beginning point 
for any other cheese making. The recipe even called for the addition of sour 
milk (e.g., butter milk) which is what cottage cheese really is in it's 
authentic or well manufactured form.
