Nonfat cottage cheese is a fresh dairy product made from curdled milk, with the creamy curds separated from the whey and skimmed to remove nearly all fat. Originating from Europe, it has become a staple in many cuisines due to its mild flavor and versatility in both savory and sweet dishes. Rich in protein and low in calories, nonfat cottage cheese is a popular choice for those seeking to build muscle, manage weight, or maintain a balanced diet. It also provides essential nutrients like calcium, phosphorus, and B vitamins. However, sodium content can be high in some varieties, so opting for low-sodium versions may be beneficial for heart health. Its creamy yet slightly tangy profile makes it a convenient and nutritious addition to salads, smoothies, or as a standalone snack.
