About Brunost
Brunost, or "brown cheese," is a Norwegian dairy product with a rich, caramel-like taste and unique texture. Made by boiling whey from cow or goat milk until the natural sugars caramelize, it has a characteristic brown color and a slightly sweet and tangy flavor. Predominantly popular in Scandinavian cuisine, Brunost is often enjoyed sliced thin on bread, crispbread, or waffles. Nutritionally, it is high in energy due to its concentration of lactose and fat, providing quick-release carbohydrates. However, it contains less protein compared to traditional cheeses. Brunost is naturally gluten-free and provides essential minerals like calcium and phosphorus, beneficial for bone health. While it can be enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet, its high sugar and fat content make it a less suitable option for those monitoring calorie intake or managing lactose levels.
