Sun-Ni Armenian String Cheese

If you love string cheese but have graduated past the rubbery specimens in the average lunchbox, this is the string cheese for your adult self, or the child within! Sun-Ni’s founder moved to the U.S. in 1925 and started making traditional Armenian cheeses from his homeland. This string cheese stretched and braided to create that perfectly peel-able texture, and seasoned with salt and a small shake of black nigella seeds, traditional to Armenian string cheese. The seeds don’t impart too much flavor, but do add a lovely black speckled appearance to the cheese. Great for snacking or melting, this cheese is perfect for working into a cheese plate or meze platter. It pairs beautifully with other Middle Eastern favorites like pita, olives, pistachios, dates, hummus, honey, etc. Peel off just what you need, and save the rest for later. Yum!
