About White cheese

White cheese, often known as feta cheese, originates from Mediterranean cuisine, particularly Greece. Made primarily from sheep's milk or a mix of sheep's and goat's milk, it has a soft, crumbly texture and a tangy, slightly salty flavor. This cheese is rich in nutrients, providing a good source of protein, calcium, and beneficial fatty acids. Its high calcium content supports bone health, while certain fatty acids may contribute to heart health when consumed in moderation. White cheese also contains probiotics, which aid in digestion and support gut health. However, it is essential to consume it in controlled portions due to its high sodium content and saturated fat levels, which may be unsuitable for individuals managing hypertension or cholesterol concerns. Versatile in cooking, white cheese enhances salads, pastries, and roasted dishes, adding a distinctive flavor and creamy texture. Enjoy it as part of a balanced diet for optimal benefits.
