About Plain skyr

Plain skyr is a traditional Icelandic dairy product known for its creamy texture and tangy flavor. It is made by fermenting skim milk with live cultures, resulting in a high-protein, low-fat food that resembles Greek yogurt. Skyr is naturally rich in calcium, which supports bone health, and provides essential nutrients like vitamin B12 and potassium. A typical serving is low in calories and sugar, making it a nutritious choice for those seeking balanced snacks or protein-rich ingredients. This versatile product can be enjoyed plain, blended with fruits, or used in recipes. While it is generally considered healthy, flavored varieties may contain added sugars, so it’s best to check the label when choosing. As a staple of Icelandic cuisine for centuries, skyr is recognized globally for its wholesome qualities and is a favorite among health-conscious eaters.
