Tibet
_Tibet_
The small, hard, grating cheeses named after the country Tibet, are of
sheep's milk, in cubes about two inches on all sides, with holes to
string them through the middle, fifty to a hundred on each string.
They suggest Chinese strings of cash and doubtless served as currency,
in the same way as Chinese cheese money. (_See under_ Money.)
Tignard
_Savoy, France_
Hard; sheep or goat; blue-veined; sharp; tangy; from Tigne Valley in
Savoy. Similar to Gex, Sassenage and Septmoncel.
Tijuana
_Mexico_
Hard; sharp; biting; named from the border race-track town.
Tillamook _see_ Chapter 4.
Tilsit, or Tilsiter Kaese, also called Ragnit
_Germany_
This classical variety of East Prussia is similar to American Brick.
Made of whole milk, with many small holes that give it an open
texture, as in Port-Salut, which it also resembles, although it is
stronger and coarser.
Old Tilsiter is something special in aromatic tang, and attempts to
imitate it are made around the world.
