About Young cheese
Young cheese, also known as fresh cheese, is a soft, mildly flavored dairy product that is aged for a shorter period compared to aged varieties. Common types include mozzarella, ricotta, paneer, and queso fresco, with roots in cuisines spanning Italy, India, and Latin America. Made from milk—cow, goat, or buffalo—it retains higher moisture content and has a creamy texture. Nutritionally, young cheese is a good source of high-quality protein, calcium, and essential vitamins like B12. It is lower in fat than many aged cheeses, though its calorie content can vary depending on the type and preparation. With fewer additives and a milder taste, it’s a versatile ingredient in salads, pasta, or as a standalone snack. Those watching their sodium intake should check labels, as some varieties may have added salt. Overall, young cheese offers a fresh, nutritious addition to balanced meals when consumed in moderation.
