About Kasseri cheese
Kasseri cheese, a staple of Greek cuisine, is a semi-hard cheese made primarily from sheep's milk, though up to 20% goat's milk may be included. Known for its pale yellow color and smooth texture, Kasseri offers a mild, tangy flavor with a hint of nuttiness. It is traditionally aged for at least four months, giving it a pliable yet firm consistency. Kasseri is rich in calcium and protein, which promote bone health and muscle repair, but it is also high in saturated fat and sodium, making portion control important for those monitoring heart health or blood pressure. This versatile cheese is commonly used in Mediterranean dishes, such as saganaki or as a topping for pies and flatbreads. Its unique flavor and meltability make it a favorite in cooking and as part of a cheese platter. Enjoy Kasseri in moderation for a flavorful addition to your meals.
