Cream Cheese Fromage Blanc Isigny

Fromage blanc is a very mild tangy, soft, spreadable cheese made with soured milk. Cream cheese is simply fresh cheese which has a reasonably high fat and moisture content, has not been allowed to develop any sort of rind and has very little added salt. Soft cheese was often stored in sealed ceramic pots in the millennia before refrigeration but the lack of salt, along with the high fat and high moisture content, means it has little use as a means of preserving milk nutrients for any length of time. Many different variations of cream cheese exist in different cultures, including quark, cottage cheese, queso fresco, fromage frais and fromage blanc.
