Hi Ruth, You can use Port Salut cheese or any other semi-soft cow’s milk cheese of a mild flavour.

Hi Zsuzsa, After revising the recipe I realised that the quantity of sour cream was wrong, cause 250 grams equal 2 cups instead of 1. So, you don’t need to decrease the quantity of flour next time, just add one more cup of sour cream. Mea culpa.

Sorry if you found them too dry, I’ve made these straws several times and there wasn’t such problem. I checked again and the converter says that 500 g of flour equal 4 cups. If you want to decrease the quantity, reduce it only by 20% (100 g or 3/4 cup), otherwise you won’t be able to knead it into a dough.

I think the 4 cups of flour should be 2 cups I made this and it was too dry and flat. I will try it again this time with less flour, otherwise tasted good.
