Sheep Milk
Sheep Milk is the milk produced from domesticated sheep and is used in many Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisines, both as a beverage and as the base for cheeses and yogurt. It is richer and creamier than typical cow's milk and is prized for its flavor in farmhouse cheeses and traditional dishes. Nutritionally, Sheep Milk is a notable source of protein, supplying about 5.6g of protein per 100g, and also provides concentrated amounts of calcium and B vitamins compared with many other milks. It contains more total and saturated fat than cow's milk, which contributes to its creamier mouthfeel and higher energy density. In terms of overall nutrition, sheep milk delivers high-quality protein and several important micronutrients (vitamin B12, riboflavin and calcium), making it a nutrient-dense dairy choice; however, people who are watching saturated fat intake or calories may prefer lower‑fat milk alternatives.
