Bouhezza is an Algerian raw-milk cheese made and ripened inside a goatskin bag called a djeld or chekoua. Salted lben (soured, churned buttermilk) is poured into the skin and topped up for weeks while whey seeps out through it, with no rennet, starter or heating; raw milk is added near the end. Draining, salting and ripening all happen at once in the bag.
Amounts from a sourceThere is no fixed recipe. In one study each bag took 3.6–3.8 L of salted lben to start, then 1.5 L more every three days for ten weeks; the amounts follow the milk available and how fast the bag drains.
Lben
Raw milk left to curdle on its own, churned and partly skimmed; low acidity preferred[aissaoui2022][boudalia2020]
Saltabout 1 tablespoon per litre of lben (in one study, 25 g per litre)
None. The cheese is made without any starter or rennet; the lben is a source of many microorganisms, and the skin bag acts as an active microbiological agent that can influence the ripening.
Total time across the recorded steps: 2.3 months – 2.4 months

Bouhezza is an Algerian raw-milk cheese made and ripened inside a goatskin bag called a djeld or chekoua. Salted lben (soured, churned buttermilk) is poured into the skin and topped up for weeks while whey seeps out through it, with no rennet, starter or heating; raw milk is added near the end. Draining, salting and ripening all happen at once in the bag. Made in 7 steps over 2.3 months – 2.4 months. The longest step, top up and drain through the skin, takes 2.3 months (Boudalia S et al. 2020. Characterization of t…). Lactococcus lactis and Lactobacillus (now Lactiplantibacillus) plantarum, regularly present in the cheese, with Leuconostoc species also found and In goat's milk Bouhezza, Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris and Streptococcus gallolyticus subsp. macedonicus, with several lactobacilli do most of the fermenting.
The researchers who study Bouhezza say it differs from other cheeses ripened in animal skins. It is begun with salted lben and topped up for weeks, and the permeable skin does the souring, draining, salting and ripening together, with no rennet, starter or heat.
Milk
Raw goat, cow or sheep milk, as lben and as whole milk
Vessel
Goatskin or lambskin bag (djeld, chekoua) that drains, salts and ripens at once
Bouhezza is made from raw milk with no heat treatment. In farm cheeses studied, faecal coliforms fell to none as the pH dropped to between 5 and 4 and salt built up, and Salmonella, S. aureus, Listeria and E. coli O157:H7 were not found. The researchers stress clean handling of the skin and milk. Those few samples do not show that it is safe. CDC says raw milk can carry E. coli, Listeria, Brucella and Salmonella and advises choosing pasteurised milk products, and children under 5, adults over 65, pregnant women and people with weak immunity are most at risk.
Hazards the sources name: Faecal coliforms (1–3 log cfu/g during making, falling to none in ripened cheese); Salmonella, Staphylococcus aureus, Listeria and E. coli O157:H7 screened for and not detected in the farm cheeses studied.
Bouhezza is the only traditional ripened cheese known in Algeria, made in parts of the Chaouia area of the east. Making starts in spring and runs for several months as milk comes in. It became an Algerian geographical indication in 2019.
