About Boursin

Boursin is a creamy, spreadable cheese originating from Normandy, France, created by François Boursin in 1957. Typically made from pasteurized cow's milk, Boursin is blended with flavorful seasonings like garlic, herbs, or black pepper, giving it its signature savory taste. Commonly enjoyed as a spread on crackers or bread, or as a versatile ingredient in recipes, it belongs to French cuisine but is now appreciated worldwide. While its rich flavor makes it a favorite, Boursin is relatively high in fat and calories, as it's made with cream and butter. However, it provides a source of calcium and protein, beneficial for bone health and muscle repair. Moderation is key, as excessive consumption may contribute to cholesterol concerns due to its saturated fat content. Perfect for enhancing party platters and dishes, Boursin is a flavorful indulgence best enjoyed thoughtfully in a balanced diet.
