Neufchatel is like the grandpa cheese hailing from France. Believe me, its origin dates back to the 6th century! It is a heart-shaped, lovable glob of cheese with a nutty flavor. Its versatility makes it a popular ingredient in sandwiches, crackers, bagels, etc. So, what’ll you do if you are craving a cheesecake with no Neufchatel cheese on hand? Don’t worry and use a substitute!
