*Farmers
cheese is a form of cottage cheese from which most of the
liquid has been pressed. I'd bet you could use cottage cheese
just as easily or experiment with other preferred cheeses.
I haven't actually tried it yet but it did sound good to me.
I might try experimenting with the cheese too to see what
comes of it.
