About Urda

Urda is a soft, fresh cheese originating from Romanian and Balkan cuisine, valued for its mild flavor and creamy texture. Made by reheating the whey leftover from cheese production, it’s typically crafted from sheep, cow, or goat's milk. This protein-rich cheese is a staple in traditional dishes like pastries, spreads, or simply enjoyed on its own. Packed with high-quality protein and low in fat, depending on the milk used, urda is an excellent option for those looking for a lighter dairy alternative. It contains essential nutrients like calcium, phosphorus, and B vitamins, which support bone health and energy metabolism. However, its sodium content can vary, so it's best consumed in moderation for those monitoring salt intake. Offering a versatile and nutritious addition to any meal, urda embodies a balance of wholesome simplicity and traditional flavor.
