Juustoa - Finnish

Finnish Squeaky Cheese - when eaten warmed, it squeaks. A favorite in the northern UP/Mich area - and among the Finns. My dad often, would take a cube and drop it in his coffee to heat the cheese. It's very mild.

I'm not usually a big fan of cheese, but this recipe changed my mind. The Juustoa cheese is mild and creamy, with a slightly tangy flavor. It's perfect for snacking or using in recipes.

The cheese turned out a bit rubbery. I'm not sure what I did wrong.
