Crumbled Feta is a tangy, salty cheese made primarily from sheep's milk, though it can also include goat's milk. Originating in Greece, it is a staple in Mediterranean cuisine, frequently used in salads, sandwiches, and savory pastries. Feta is known for its crumbly texture due to its preservation in brine. It offers a rich source of calcium and protein, essential for bone health and muscle repair. Additionally, feta contains beneficial probiotics that support gut health. However, it is relatively high in sodium and saturated fat, so moderation is advised, especially for individuals monitoring heart health. Its bold flavor and versatility make it a popular choice for adding depth to dishes while contributing essential nutrients to a balanced diet.
