Manouri is a soft, semi-sweet cheese originating from Greece, particularly in the regions of Thessaly and Macedonia. Made from the whey of feta cheese, it is enriched with sheep or goat's milk and cream, giving it a rich yet mild flavor and a creamy texture. Manouri is a good source of protein and calcium, supporting bone health and muscle repair. It contains beneficial fats, though its fat content may be higher than some cheeses due to the added cream, so portion control is recommended. This cheese is naturally gluten-free, making it suitable for those with gluten intolerances. Commonly used in Mediterranean cuisine, Manouri pairs well with fruits, honey, or salads and can be enjoyed as a dessert or savory addition. Its smooth texture and versatile flavor make it a delightful choice for adding a touch of indulgence to a balanced diet.
