What is cancoillotte cheese?

Cancoillotte cheese is a soft, creamy cheese that is a speciality of the Franche-Comté region of France. It is made from natural cheese that is melted down and mixed with water or milk, resulting in a paste-like consistency. Traditionally, it is made with either whole or skimmed milk from Montbéliarde cows, which graze in the Jura Mountains. Cancoillotte cheese is typically aged for only a few days, which gives it a mild, slightly sweet taste. It is often flavored with garlic, herbs, and spices, and can be eaten both hot and cold. Cancoillotte cheese is a popular ingredient in French cuisine, and is frequently used in dishes like fondue, raclette, and gratin.
