Kefir cheese is a creamy, tangy dairy product made by straining kefir, a fermented milk drink that originates from the Caucasus region. Its unique flavor comes from the probiotic-rich cultures in kefir, making it a natural source of beneficial bacteria that promote gut health and support digestion. Kefir cheese is high in protein, calcium, and vitamins like B12 and K2, contributing to stronger bones, improved immunity, and overall wellness. It has less lactose than traditional dairy products, making it more digestible for individuals with sensitivity. However, being a dairy product, it is relatively high in saturated fat, so portion control is key for a balanced diet. Versatile in use, kefir cheese adds a rich, tangy twist to spreads, dips, and sauces or serves as a better-for-you alternative to cream cheese in both savory and sweet dishes.
