Gjetost (YEHT-ohst) is a Norwegian cheese, lightly sweet and caramel color, made from goat and cow milk whey. The color and flavor are attributed to slow cooking until the milk sugar caramelizes. Look for mysost (or primost) cheese if gjetost is unavailable. Serve this salad with a light main dish, such as grilled or broiled fish or chicken.
