Pultost is a soft, mature Norwegian sour milk cheese flavored with caraway seeds. Pultost is found in two variants, spreadable and grainy. The spreadable variant has a stronger taste. The name may come from the Latin word pulta which means "porridge." Pultost is either used on bread or with boiled potatoes, butter, sour cream and lefse or flatbread. [1]
Like Gamalost, pultost has a long history in Norway. The cheese is made from skimmed milk that has been soured, similar to cultured buttermilk, flavoured with caraway and preserved with salt. Pultost is an acid-set cheese, and very low in fat.[2][3]
Norwegian dairy Tine produces pultost at the dairy in Nybergsund in Trysil. Tine make three qualities: a spreadable, soft type, called Løiten, a looser type with a dry and grainy texture, called Hedemark and another grainy type, with stronger flavour, called Lillehammer. Synnøve Finden is another manufacturer of pultost in Norway. The cheese mass is produced by Tine and processed further by Synnøve Finden. Synnøve Finden is promoting two types of pultost: Seterost and Hedmark.
