Cancoillotte (Cancoyotte)
Cancoillotte or Cancoyotte is a runny cheese made from Meton cheese in the Franche-Comté region of France. Meton (metton) cheese is made using cow's milk, which is coagulated, then heated, pressed, and aged for a few days. Cancoillotte is made by melting Meton on low heat in an earthenware pot with some water or milk and adding salt and butter.
Cancoillotte is also produced in Lorraine and Luxembourg and is called Kachkéis or Kochkäse, i.e., cook-cheese (in German). The name is related to the word "coille," referring to milk left after cream extraction.
Cancoillotte is sold in containers with various flavours like plain, nature, garlic, vin jaune, shallot, and Bourgogne Aligote. Cancoillotte can be eaten hot or cold, and it is a delicious spread on bread, vegetables, or meat.
