Eam Datsh Bhutan Food

in #cooking7 years ago

Undoubtedly the most famous dish in Bhutan. Primarily made with chilli and cheese. The cheese used in this is usually a homemade soft churpee. But since I don't have that at my disposal, I used kalimpong cheese which has been produced in kalimpong since the Jesuits established a diary here in the 19th century. This Gouda like cheese tastes a bit acidic and is not a smelly cheese, especially when it hasn't been aged.
