Rubing (Chinese: 乳饼; pinyin: rǔbǐng) is a firm, acid-set, non-melting, fresh goat milk farmer cheese made in the Yunnan Province of China by people of the Bai and Sani (recognized as a branch of the Yi in China) minorities.[1] Its Bai name is youdbap, meaning "goat's milk".[1]

Production[edit]
Rubing is made by mixing heated goat's milk and a souring agent, traditionally a mixture called năiténg (奶藤; lit. 'milk cane') made from a cultivated vine.[1]
Preparation and serving[edit]
Rubing is often 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 mainland Chinese rural cuisine tends to stir-fry harder forms of tofu.photo Rarely it is pan fried and served with alternative flavourings such as málà powder.
Relationship to other cheeses[edit]
Rubing is roughly similar to paneer and queso blanco, but with the aroma of fresh goat's milk.
