About Placinta cu branza

Placinta Cu Branza is a traditional Romanian pastry made with a thin, flaky dough and filled with a mixture of soft cheeses, typically a combination of feta, cottage cheese, or ricotta. Often enriched with eggs and slightly sweetened with sugar, it provides a balance of savory and subtle sweetness, making it versatile for both breakfast or dessert. Originating in Eastern European cuisine, it highlights Romania’s rich baking traditions. While the cheeses in this pastry are a good source of calcium and protein, Placinta Cu Branza can be calorically dense due to the butter or oil often used in the dough and the potential addition of sugar. Moderation is advised, especially for individuals monitoring fat intake or choosing lower-calorie options. Its comforting flavors and nourishing ingredients make it an occasional treat worth savoring.
