With different techniques, milks, and types, here's what cheese looks like around the world.
3
Mozzarella originated in southern Italy, and legend says it was created by mistake when cheese curds accidentally fell into hot water.
4
Mozzarella is commonly used on pizza or in salads, or, as you may know, mozzarella sticks.
5
Although it can be made from any milk, in Italy, it is traditionally produced from the milk of the Italian water buffalo.
6
It's spongy, soft, and moist.
7
Caseificio La Fattoria in Battipaglia, in the Campania region of southern Italy, makes over 9 tons of fresh mozzarella per day.

16
Like cottage cheese, paneer is not aged and is made with milk curds.
17
It is prepared by adding food acids such as lemon juice, yogurt, or vinegar to hot milk.
18
The curds are separated from the whey and drained in a muslin or cheesecloth so that excess water can be pressed out and paneer can be produced.
19
Paneer is used in many Indian cuisines, like paneer tikka masala.
20
Cheddar cheese dates back to the late 12th century in the caves found at the edge of the village in the Cheddar Gorge.

シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由

シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
