Bandel Cheese is a distinct, heritage cheese from West Bengal, India, known for its smoky flavor and crumbly texture. Made from cow's milk, it undergoes a unique curdling and fermentation process before being shaped and smoked, giving it a robust taste. Bandel Cheese is traditionally used in Bengali cuisine and versatile in culinary applications, from salads to savory dishes. It is high in protein and calcium, making it beneficial for bone health and muscle repair. However, its high sodium content due to the brining process may not be suitable for individuals monitoring their salt intake. While it is a good source of nutrients, like vitamins from milk and probiotics from fermentation, moderation is key due to its rich sodium and fat levels. Widely appreciated for its artisanal qualities, Bandel Cheese offers a slice of history and tradition in every bite.
