Bulgarian yogurt, known as "kiselo mlyako," is a creamy, tart dairy product originating from Bulgaria and a staple in Balkan cuisine. It's made from cow, sheep, or goat's milk and fermented with two specific live bacterial cultures: Lactobacillus bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus. This unique bacterial combination not only gives Bulgarian yogurt its distinct taste and texture but also supports gut health by promoting a balance of healthy probiotics. Naturally rich in protein, calcium, and B vitamins, it supports muscle growth, bone health, and energy metabolism. Bulgarian yogurt is low in sugar and typically contains minimal additives, making it a healthier choice than many commercial yogurts. However, like most dairy products, it contains saturated fat, so moderation is key for those monitoring their fat intake. Enjoy it plain, blended with honey and fruit, or as a base for savory sauces and soups.
