Plain unsweetened Greek yogurt is a creamy, tangy dairy product originating from Mediterranean cuisine, known for its thicker consistency compared to regular yogurt. It is made by straining excess whey from yogurt, which results in a higher protein content and a richer texture. Unsweetened varieties contain no added sugars, making them a nutritious choice for those seeking a wholesome and unprocessed option. Packed with calcium, probiotics, and essential amino acids, it supports bone health, digestion, and muscle repair. It is naturally low in fat if made from non-fat or low-fat milk, though full-fat versions are also available. While it is a nutrient-dense food, it’s important to monitor portion sizes in higher-fat versions or account for added ingredients in recipes. A versatile ingredient, it complements both savory dishes and desserts as a base or topping, reflecting its wide use in various culinary traditions.
