About Sirene cheese
Sirene cheese, a staple of Balkan cuisine, originates from countries like Bulgaria, Serbia, and North Macedonia. Made primarily from sheep, goat, or cow’s milk, it has a crumbly texture and tangy, salty flavor, similar to feta. Sirene is rich in protein, calcium, and essential vitamins like B12, which support bone health, muscle repair, and energy production. However, its high sodium content requires moderation, especially for individuals monitoring salt intake. Traditionally enjoyed in salads, pastries, or alongside fresh vegetables, Sirene is a versatile ingredient that adds a savory boost to meals. Its natural fermentation process also makes it a source of probiotics, which can support gut health. Moderation ensures you enjoy its nutritional benefits without overindulging in sodium or fat.
