thumb|alt=2 plastic box of crumbled cheese.|Pultost Pultost is a soft, mature Norwegian sour milk cheese flavored with caraway seeds.

Like gamalost, pultost has a long history in Norway. The cheese is made from skimmed milk that has been soured, similar to cultured buttermilk, flavoured with caraway and preserved with salt. Pultost is an acid-set cheese, and very low in fat. Pultost is found in two variants, spreadable and grainy. The spreadable variant has a stronger taste. Pultost is commonly either spread on bread, lefse or flatbread or served with boiled potatoes.
