About Fresh milk cheese

Fresh milk cheese, often made from cow, goat, or sheep's milk, is a creamy and mild dairy product celebrated in cuisines worldwide. Originating from traditional cheese-making practices, it is typically unaged, retaining a smooth texture and light flavor. Popular varieties include paneer in South Asian cuisine, queso fresco in Latin American dishes, and ricotta in Italian fare. Rich in protein and calcium, fresh milk cheese supports muscle health and bone strength, making it a nutritious option. It also provides essential vitamins like B12, beneficial for energy production and brain function. However, it contains saturated fats, which should be consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet. Fresh milk cheese is typically lower in sodium compared to aged cheeses, making it favorable for those watching their salt intake. Versatile and wholesome, it complements both savory and sweet recipes while contributing valuable nutrients to meals.
