Yes, I suppose I could, but just never thought of it. The next time
I shop and fail to find the large curd cottage cheese, I'll give it a
try. I bought a few Yorkshire Curd Tarts a couple of times and
really enjoyed them, but have never had a recipe. The ones I bought
were delicious, with plenty of currants and flavored with rosewater.
