 |
|
| The main/big foreign food market in Itaewon has about 10 tubs left of the fat free stuff. I bought the last 2 tubs of the 2%, but I wanted to let you know that you'll find some if you have a hankering. The expiry dates were around March 9th or 10th. Please let the cashiers know that you'd like them to stock this regularly! |

| Awesome. I'm not back in Korea yet, but that was one of the foods I missed most while living there. Hopefully they'll continue to carry it, although I don't really plan on going to Itaewon on a weekly basis just to get cottage cheese. |

You could buy a lot of it and freeze most of it. That's what I'm planning to do, assuming they have enough in stock. |

@cdinkorea: It doesn't freeze well unless you plan on baking with it.
@nathanrutledge: I didn't know that. I've been having friends pick it up for me once in a while from the base, but I was excited about something that I haven't seen, yet love, and wanted to share the info. None of my friends knew where to get the stuff, either.
Now I have 2 places.
For me, finding cottage cheese WAS a big deal. It's one of my favorite breakfasts, with black pepper and some bran crisps. |

| I make my own paneer and ricotta-style farmer's cheese, but there's always somethings slightly off when I make cottage cheese. I really do prefer the store-bought stuff. It also lasts longer than a day and a half, when it comes to tasting right. It's likely the ton of preservatives, but I love the stuff. Anyway, enjoy! Now there are 2 places in which to buy it. |

| I checked out the Yongsan E-mart today with the hubby. There was no cottage cheese, but we did see ricotta. Ah well... Give a heads up if anyone sees it there again. For now, I'll stick with Itaewon and friends on base. |
