About Brynza
Brynza is a traditional cheese originating from Eastern Europe, particularly popular in countries like Ukraine, Bulgaria, and Romania. It is made from sheep's milk, or sometimes cow or goat milk, and has a rich, tangy flavor with a crumbly texture. Brynza is an excellent source of calcium and protein, essential for bone health and muscle maintenance, and also contains essential vitamins such as B12 and phosphorus. However, it tends to be high in sodium due to the brining process, which may not be ideal for those on low-sodium diets. Its moderate fat content provides energy but should be consumed in balance, particularly by individuals monitoring cholesterol. Brynza is a staple ingredient in many traditional dishes, such as salads, pastries, or hearty stews, and its versatility makes it a flavorful addition to both everyday and festive meals.
