The myth of the cheese behind Apetina®
There was a time long ago a man in ancient Mesopotamia, who would ride into the desert on his camel. He was riding so much that he took his lædersæk made from a calf stomach and filled it with milk, so he had something to drink along the way.
All day he rode - with a leather bag skvulp end up in the warm sun on a camel. But then he would have something to drink, it was no longer milk, he had the leather bag - it was a hard, white mass, as he ate, and a liflig fluid, which he drank. What the heat from the sun, tremors from the camel movements and serial enzyme from calves stomach had produced, according to legend was the world's first cheese - and it was probably the same type as Apetina®.
In any case it is the type of cheese, which for centuries has been the most eaten cheese in countries around the eastern Mediterranean. And since the most common animals to get milk from the time in the area were given, the cheeses were usually made from sheep's milk.CalibriVerdanaCheckCalibriVerdanaCheckCalibriVerdanaCheckCalibriVerdanaCheckCalibriVerdanaCheckCalibriVerdanaCheckCalibriVerdanaCheckCalibriVerdanaCheck
