About Greek cheese
Greek cheese, renowned for its rich flavors and versatility, holds a celebrated place in Mediterranean cuisine. Feta, the most iconic Greek cheese, is crafted from sheep’s milk or a mix of sheep’s and goat’s milk, offering a crumbly texture and briny taste. Other varieties, such as graviera and kefalotyri, range from mild to sharp, often made from sheep, goat, or cow’s milk. Greek cheese is a nutrient-dense food, providing protein, calcium, and essential vitamins like B12, which support bone health and muscle function. It also contains beneficial probiotics for gut health. However, due to its sodium and fat content, moderation is key, especially for individuals with dietary restrictions or heart concerns. Greek cheese serves as a flavorful addition to salads, pastries, or cooked dishes, embodying the simplicity and nutritional richness of Mediterranean eating traditions.
