About Fresh cheese
Fresh cheese is a versatile, unripened dairy product made by curdling milk and draining its whey. Common varieties include ricotta, cream cheese, cottage cheese, and queso fresco, with origins spanning numerous cuisines, including Italian, Mediterranean, and Latin American. Fresh cheese is known for its soft texture and mild, creamy flavor, making it perfect for sweet and savory dishes alike. Nutritionally, it provides a good source of protein, calcium, and other essential nutrients that support bone health and muscle growth. Its lower fat content compared to aged cheeses often makes it a lighter option for many diets. However, some types, such as cream cheese, may be higher in saturated fat and calories, so portion control is key. By choosing low-fat or reduced-sodium versions, fresh cheese can be a nutritious addition to meals while maintaining its delightful taste and versatility.
