Production

Rubing is made by mixing heated goat's milk and a souring agent, traditionally a mixture called năiténg (奶藤; lit. 'milk vine') made from a cultivated vine.^[1]

Preparation and serving

Rubing is most often steamed with local ham or salt beef, or sometimes served pan fried with salt and chilli. It may also be stir fried with vegetables (typically a mix of broccoli and carrot), in a similar manner to how other mainland Chinese rural cuisine tends to stir-fry harder forms of tofu.^photo It is also pan fried and served with alternative flavourings such as dry chilli powder, salt, and Sichuan pepper powder.

Relationship to other cheeses

Rubing is roughly similar to paneer and queso blanco, but with the aroma of fresh goat's milk.
