I wonder if anyone thought how many cheeses there are in the world. Solid, semi-solid, soft, processed, smoked - this is a fairly general classification of cheeses. Cheeses are made not only from cow's milk, but also from sheep, horse and even camel.
Which cheeses are low-fat?
Lean cheeses are made from skim milk. Low-fat milk is also called taken off, that is, cream was removed from it, which contains the main percentage of fat. Cheese, which is made from such milk , also contains a lower percentage of fat. But it is impossible to name such a cheese as fatty, more correctly, light or, with a lower fat content. Low-fat hard cheese, or semi-hard, but in taste, is not inferior to soft cheeses with a high percentage of fat.
Low-fat cheeses for a diet
Low-fat cheeses are just a godsend for a diet. Many protein diets allow the use of cheeses containing not more than 12% fat content. There is even a separate cheese diet . The main food for people who adhere to this diet are low-fat cheese.
Which cheese is the most lean?
A unique answer to this question is tofu cheese. Its fat content is only about 3%. And the whole secret is that it is made from soy milk, so it is equated to products of plant origin.
Among other varieties, there are two more.
Easy feta. The producers of this low-fat cheese have tried very hard to preserve the traditional rich taste of feta for those people who diligently count the calories and maximally degrease it.
Mozzarella, made from "skimmed milk." Tasty, useful and not threatening the waist.
This is not a complete list of the most popular varieties of cheese. Eat with pleasure and lose weight. But remember that everything needs a measure. In kilograms even skimmed cheese has a lot of kilocalories.
