About Anthotyro
Anthotyro is a traditional Greek cheese made from either sheep’s or goat’s milk, often resembling a soft, crumbly texture with a mild, slightly tangy flavor. It is typically unsalted and low in fat compared to many other cheeses, making it a lighter choice for those watching their caloric intake. Rich in protein and calcium, Anthotyro supports healthy bones and muscle repair but is naturally lower in sodium, appealing to individuals seeking heart-friendly options. With origins deeply rooted in Greek cuisine, it’s a versatile ingredient commonly used in pies, salads, or alongside fresh fruits and nuts. However, as with most dairy products, those with lactose intolerance should consume it cautiously. Anthotyro can be enjoyed fresh or slightly aged, offering slight variations in texture and taste to suit different preferences. With its wholesome nutritional benefits, it complements Mediterranean diets focused on balanced eating and fresh ingredients.
