Romanian term or phrase: brânză de vaci
Caut termenul exact pentru cea mai apropriata 'branza de vaci' care se poate gasi pe piata americana. As spune cottage cheese, dar nu sunt sigura. Este pentru reteta de papanasi care cere exact' branza dulce de vaci'.

pressed cottage cheese
Explanation:
Am inclus site-ul cu produsele care le cumpar eu.

Sunt doua tipuri: "cottage cheese" (consistenta parca e de branza cu smantana) si "pressed cottage cheese" (care e o bucata de branza de vaci, cum o stim noi). Acestea sunt produse canadiene, deci asa se spune aici.

Quark cheese


Explanation:
Dictionarul spune curd cheese, dar nu m-a convins, vezi pagina web care da o explicatie foarte buna.

agree  Annamaria Amik: se foloseste alternativ quark/cottage/curd cheese, si asa se numeste in toate retetele austriece traduse in lb engleza

neutral  mihaela.: Nu contest ca informatia aceasta se gaseste pe internt dar eu, ca avand o familie mare iubitoare de branzeturi, si intrand in vorba cu multi comercianti pe tema asta, n-am auzit vreodata expresia ... poate sa se foloseasca in Europa ...

fresh / unripened Ricotta

Yummy ....
A fresh, unripened Italian cheese, made from whole or skim milk, which is white in color with a soft texture and mildly sweet flavor. Avoid food store brands, which lack in sweetness.

"Cottage cheese", spre deosebire de branza proaspata si de Ricotta (denumire intrata in vocabular ca si Mozarella) care se fac din lapte bun (cum spunea bunica ...) cu cheag, se face din zerul ramas dupa baterea untului; deci o branza de calitate inferioara, facuta din resturi, la cottage, nepresata, prezentata in si vanduta cu tot cu zer.

neutral  mihaela.: Branza similara cu cea de vaci, proaspata, nu vine in pachet si nu se cumpara de la supermarket :-( Cunosc produsele de mai sus asa ca stiu si diferentele de la una la alta ... ce-i drept, pressed cottage exte extrem de apropiata de branza de vaci ...
2 hrs
  -> Multumesc pt. comentariu, Mihaela. Eu cand am timp fac branza de vaci in casa pt. fetita mea, si e cea mai buna. La papanasi folosesc din aceea organica la pachet sau mai este un tip de branza poloneza aici la noi care e si mai apropiata la gust.

5 hrs
  -> Multumesc, mikaiulia. Salutari iesenilor mei! :)
agree  Veronica Costea: Da, eu cred ca asta e. Iar branza cea din primul link, este exact cea pe care o folosesc si eu pentru papanasi. Garantez ca ies buni :)
