According to All Recipes, 8 ounces of farmer’s cheese is successfully replaced with 8 ounces of dry cottage cheese or 8 ounces of well-drained creamy cottage cheese. Fresh ricotta or havarti cheese also make excellent substitution choices.
The Wisconsin Cheese Food Service offers a useful tool to determine substitutions for any type of cheese.
