Ulloa, gallego or patela is semi-hard cheese made from cow's milk in the
Spanish provinces of La Coruña, Lugo and Pontevedra. It is most as
likely that this cheese existed in the Middle Ages as did what we call
today Cabrales or Roquefort but is there available research connecting
names today and those of medieval cheeses as in the case of blue cheese?
I see Italian cheese made from buffalo milk is receiving modern names or
substitutes while Nola simply calls it buffalo cheese.
