yoghurt, citric acid

Gjizë is a type of dry curded cheese, made from yoghurt and citric acid. The texture and taste resemble sour ricotta, but gjizë can be enriched with garlic, herbs, salt or other spices. Gjizë can be consumed as it is, used as a filling for burek, or as a part of another typical Albanian dish, Fërgesë.
