San Michali is a [[:Category:Greek recipes#ΠΟΠ (POP) ingredients|ΠΟΠ (POP)]] [[cows' milk]] [[cheese]] from the island of Syros in the<br />
Cyclades prefecture. This hard traditional [[cheese]] has been<br />
produced on Syros for the last 40-50 years and is<br />
highly-esteemed by consumers. It is made using<br />
traditional technology and ripened in installations<br />
within the defined geographical area.<br />
<br />
The [[milk]] is partially<br />
skimmed, pasteurised and coagulated at 32-34 degrees. The<br />
[[cheese]] [[curd]] is then divided into pieces, reheated to<br />
48-50 degrees, lightly salted, transferred to moulds and<br />
strongly pressed. It is then salted by immersion in<br />
[[brine]] held at 10-14 degrees and at a density of 18-20% for<br />
about 12 days. After this it is kept in ripening rooms<br />
at a temperature of 14-16 degrees and a relative humidity of<br />
85% for not less than 4 months.<br />
<br />
The milk used for the cheese comes from cows<br />
kept on the island of Syros. The animals are totally<br />
adapted to the environment and their diet is based on<br />
the available flora.<br />
