About Buffalo cheese

Buffalo cheese, crafted from the rich, creamy milk of water buffalo, is a staple in various cuisines, particularly Italian and South Asian. Well-known varieties include mozzarella di bufala and paneer. This cheese is prized for its smooth texture, mild tang, and higher fat content compared to cow’s milk cheese. Packed with essential nutrients like protein, calcium, and phosphorus, buffalo cheese supports bone health and muscle repair. Additionally, it contains vitamin A and beneficial fatty acids. However, its fat and calorie content can be higher, so portion sizes should be mindful for those managing dietary fat intake. Buffalo cheese is often said to be easier to digest for individuals sensitive to cow’s milk due to its different protein structure. Whether melted atop pizzas or incorporated into traditional curries, buffalo cheese offers rich flavor and nutritional value when consumed in moderation.
