Qishta

Qishta (Arabic: قِشْطَة, romanized: qišṭa, pronounced [qiʃ.tˤa]), also known as kishta, kashta , ghishta, or ashta, is a dairy coagulated milk product prepared from heated fresh milk and consumed as a dessert.

[3] It is sometimes scented with orange flower water.

[4] Ashta may be served with fruit, used to fill crêpes and pastries, or served with pistachios and sweet syrups.

[5][6] Qishta is "highly perishable" and, if improperly prepared or stored, may be a source of foodborne illness such as listeria.

[7][8][9] It is similar to other heat-prepared dairy dishes such as kaymak and khoa.
