Peking cheese is not the same thing as cottage cheese, a common dairy product. Peking cheese is baked with fresh milk and glutinous rice wine, and then cooled and refrigerated until it is creamy, and the taste is clear and slightly sour, and it is difficult to catch the milky flavor even if you sip your tongue. Many restaurants stack red beans, fruit pieces, and dried fruits on top of the cheese to add richness to the taste, but this is likely to encroach on the already thin milky flavor, so it's fun at best.
