[Sca-cooks] Seeking Middle Easter Cheese Info

[wildecelery at aol.com]

Greetings!

A friend once mentioned to me that in modern-day Lebanon they use a "fresh cheese' as a condiment served with garlic grilled meats, as the cheese cuts the "heat" of the garlic.? She says this tastes very similar to a Roman melca (vinegar-curdled cheese {similar to a Queso blanco with vinegar in place of the lemon})? Does anyone have a source to suggest where?I could find period ME cheese instructions?
