Three Milk Blend
Three milk blend cheeses deliberately combine cow, sheep, and goat milks in one make to balance volume, richness, and tang—often labelled tre latti in Italian dairying. The blend can be fresh, soft-ripened, or lightly aged. Use as a versatile table cheese: milder than pure sheep, more complex than pure cow. Check the label for dominant milk if substituting in recipes.
