Kashkaval

Kashkaval is a type of yellow cheese made of cow milk (kashkaval vitosha), sheep milk (kashkaval balkan), or both (kashkaval preslav). The name is derived from the Italian caciocavallo (Romanian:cașcaval, Bulgarian:кашкавал, pronounced [kɐʃkɐˈvɑɫ], Macedonian:кашкавал, pronounced [kaʃkaˈval]; Turkish:kaşkaval/kaşar, Serbian:качкаваљ or kačkavalj; Albanian:Kaçkavalli). In Albania, Bulgaria, Republic of Macedonia, Serbia and Romania, the term is often used to refer to all yellow cheeses (or even any cheese other than sirene). In English-language menus in Bulgaria, "кашкавал" is translated as "yellow cheese" (whereas sirene is usually translated as "white cheese" or simply "cheese").
