Paneer

Panir cheese is a fresh cheese originating in India and used in Indian and South Asian cuisine. It can be used in different preparations. It is a curd cheese, not cured, acid, that does not melt. It has been curdled by heating milk with lemon or another acidic food.

It is usually eaten without salt and cooked.
