About Kashkawan cheese

Kashkawan cheese, a staple in Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisine, is a semi-hard cheese made primarily from cow, goat, or sheep’s milk. Known for its firm texture and rich, tangy flavor, Kashkawan is often enjoyed grated over dishes or as part of cheese boards. Nutritionally, it is a good source of protein and calcium, essential for building strong muscles and reinforcing bone health. However, it is also high in saturated fat and sodium, which should be consumed in moderation to maintain heart health and manage blood pressure. Kashkawan cheese is versatile, adding depth to salads, pastries, and warm entrees, while its dense nutrient profile provides energy and satiety. While delicious, balance is key to including Kashkawan cheese in a healthy diet.
