Icelandic skyr yogurt is a creamy, protein-rich dairy product that has been a staple in Icelandic cuisine for centuries. Made from skimmed milk and cultures, skyr is strained extensively, resulting in its signature thick texture. Traditionally, it’s considered a type of cheese rather than yogurt, though it’s commonly enjoyed as a yogurt alternative worldwide. Skyr is naturally high in protein, low in fat, and low in sugar when unsweetened, making it a healthy choice for those seeking balanced nutrition. It’s also rich in calcium and probiotics, which support bone health and digestion. However, flavored varieties may contain added sugars, so it’s important to check labels for nutritional content. Whether enjoyed on its own, topped with fresh fruit, or used in recipes, skyr delivers both nourishment and a taste of Iceland’s culinary heritage.
