NOTES:

  1. Cheeses:

      Other cheeses people use are cream cheese, hoop cheese, or any other soft, mild white cheese. This spread was traditionally made from Lipto Cheese from Liptov, now in northern Slovakia, and served in Hungarian casinos. Lipto is a Feta type sheep cheese that you're not likely to find in your local market.
