About Smetana
Smetana is a rich, creamy dairy product similar to sour cream, widely used in Central and Eastern European cuisine. Typically made by fermenting pasteurized cream with lactic acid bacteria, it offers a tangy flavor and velvety texture. It’s a staple in dishes like borscht, stroganoff, and various savory or sweet recipes. Nutritionally, smetana is high in fat, with full-fat varieties containing around 30-40% milkfat, making it calorie-dense. It provides essential nutrients such as calcium, phosphorus, and vitamin B12, which support bone health and energy metabolism. However, due to its high saturated fat content, excessive consumption may contribute to health concerns like elevated cholesterol levels. Lighter or low-fat versions are available for those seeking a more heart-friendly option without sacrificing flavor. Smetana enhances dishes with its richness, making it both a beloved culinary ingredient and a product to enjoy in moderation.
