Crema de leche, or "milk cream," is a rich dairy product commonly used in Latin American cuisine. Made from pasteurized heavy cream, it boasts a smooth texture and mild, slightly sweet flavor that complements both savory and sweet dishes. Popular in sauces, soups, desserts, and even beverages, crema de leche adds a luxurious creaminess to recipes. Nutritionally, it is a source of calcium and vitamin D, essential for bone health, as well as a source of energy due to its fat content. However, it is high in saturated fats and calories, which should be consumed in moderation, especially by individuals monitoring heart health or weight management. Crema de leche is valued for its versatility and ability to enhance flavor profiles but is best enjoyed as part of a balanced diet.
