Hi this is my favorite thing i ate in Norway and I can't find a replacement here in the US. Our cream cheese is from cow's milk and it's quite dense. Do you have any recipes or ideas for ingredients that I could experiment with? Thank you!

By ate I should say favorite condiment**
I LOVE to add this to omelets.
Can even add several tastes in same omelet.
Other brands works as well, I suppose.

Unfortunately I don’t know of any way to make these. Do you have Philadelphia cheese over the pond? They can be similarish.
I guess Philadelphia cheese and add chopped parsley, thyme and dill will be close
Is this made of goat milk? I thought it was cow’s milk. Goat milk usually has a heartier taste.
But maybe just look for a more local brand of cream cheese, their usually a bit stronger tasting then philly if that’s what you want! Some might have it with herbs already added
Tine, the producer of this cream cheese, have a recipe for [homemade cream cheese](https://www.tine.no/oppskrifter/lunsj-og-smaretter/smorbrod-og-palegg/hjemmelaget-kremost) you can try out… 🤔 (it is in Norwegian, but with Google translate you’ll figure it out)
BTW I haven’t tried it myself…
The ingredients [listed for this product are](https://www.tine.no/merkevarer/tine-kremgo/produkter/tine-kremgo-urter):
>pasteurized milk and cream, salt, onion, dill, tarragon, parsley, thyme, stabilizer (locust bean gum and guar gum), starter culture
Milk and cream in this context are from cows, so any cream cheese made from that base could potentially work. Someone mentioned Philadelphia, but unless it is different over there I think it might be too creamy to accurately replicate this, though you might still get the right flavor profile.
The exact ratios of the herbs are not disclosed, so you would have to start experimenting.
I am pretty sure this is a copy of Philadelphia. The one with the green lid.
I wish I could send everyone what we have as our regular Philadelphia cream cheese (spreadable and with chive and onion) here in the US. Seriously, kremgo is superior.
Maybe try straining the Philadelphia?
Boy do I have good news for you OP
