Bulgarian yogurt
Bulgarian yogurt is a traditional dairy product known for its thick texture and tangy flavor. It is made from cow's, goat's, or sheep's milk and is fermented using specific bacterial cultures, primarily Lactobacillus bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus. This fermentation process not only thickens the milk but also enhances its nutritional value, making it rich in probiotics.
This yogurt is often enjoyed plain or used in various dishes, such as salads and desserts. It is a staple in Bulgarian cuisine and has gained popularity worldwide for its health benefits, including improved digestion and immune support.
