The Israeli equivalent of farmer cheese is call “Tuv Tam”. (It is written on the package only in Hebrew.) it comes in packages of 250 grams, roughly, 1/2 pound.
I have seen farmer cheese here, it comes in a white package with blue writing and I have seen it in every supermarket. I don’t believe I have seen Greek yogurt though, can regular vanilla yogurt be substituted?
I live in Israel. What cheese is comprable to farmer cheese?
Philadelphia or a creamy cheese that has no strong animal flavor i would reccomend.
