Especially Greek Yogurts
Curd, also mosaru or dahi or Thayir or Perugu, is a traditional Yogurt or
fermented milk product, originating from and popular throughout the Indian subcontinent, usually prepared
from cow's milk, and sometimes buffalo milk, or goat milk.Buffalo curd is a traditional type of yogurt
prepared from water buffalo milk. It is popular throughout the Indian subcontinent. Buffalo
milk is traditionally considered better for making yogurt than cow milk due to its higher fat content making
a thicker yogurt mass.[6] Buffalo curd is usually packaged in clay pots. Buffalo curd is obtained by
bacterial fermentation of buffalo milk. In this process lactose in buffalo milk is converted into lactic
acid using several micro-organisms. The species involved in the fermentation are the same as above.
Buffalo milk has a higher amounts of protein, fat, lactose, minerals and vitamins than cow's milk. Quality
of the curd depends on the starter culture. Fermentation also develops the characteristic flavor and colour
of the product.
