Indian yoghurt, commonly known as dahi, is a creamy, fermented dairy product integral to Indian cuisine. Made from milk and a probiotic starter culture, it’s naturally rich in protein, calcium, and beneficial live bacteria that aid digestion and promote gut health. Low in calories and fat (depending on milk choice), dahi supports bone strength and boosts immunity. It’s enjoyed in a variety of dishes—from raitas to curries—and can be eaten plain, often serving as a cooling agent alongside spicy foods. Homemade versions offer minimal additives, unlike commercial varieties which may contain added sugars or preservatives. While highly nutritious, those with lactose intolerance should consume it cautiously. Dahi provides a balance of taste and health, reflecting the diversity and vitality of Indian culinary traditions.
