alternatively, it should be possible, at the stage when the drained curds are mixed with salt, to add fresh butter up to a proportion of 15 % to improve the texture, flavour and aroma of the ‘Kopanisti’, a practice which is widespread in domestic cheese-making within the production area. The butter is made from the cream obtained after skimming the milk produced in the area of the Cyclades, which is used in the production of other cheeses in the area. The milk is produced from the same dairy animals that are kept under the same conditions and fed the same diet within the identified area of the Cyclades islands.

Speaking of dairy products – a sector that is quite crucial to the Azores – I cannot accept a situation in which farmers live in a state of constant fear of being fined for overproduction while European criminal organisations are falsifying tens of thousands of tons of butter with the complicity of the major European dairy product groups and while the dairy industry is receiving subsidies for powdered milk, which is basically whey, while major dairy produce companies are selling the equivalent of hundreds of millions of litres of what purport to be dairy products, but are, in fact, counterfeit products that are not made from milk.
