Caravane

(Caravane Cheese)

Caravane is a unique cheese from Mauritania, made from pasteurized camel's milk. The first caravane was made by Nancy Abeiderrhamane in the early 1990s. The cheese has a soft, tender texture and a white-colored, bloomy rind. Its flavor is creamy, slightly salty, and delicately sweet.

Caravane is often used in dips, cakes, and appetizers, while its unusual flavor makes it an ideal accompaniment to a glass of red wine.
