Description

Our Premium Himalayan Cheese is a traditional sun-dried hard cheese from the pristine landscapes of Ladakh. Known locally as Chhurpe, this unique cheese has been a staple in the Himalayan diet for centuries, providing essential nutrients and a distinct, savory flavour.

A Taste of Himalayan Heritage:

Chhurpe is a hard, aged Himalayan cheese made from the milk of dzomo (female hybrid between yak and cow) and native Ladakhi cows grazed in high Himalayan pasturelands. This traditional drying process of sun-drying in the crisp mountain air of Ladakh creates a remarkably hard, long-lasting cheese with a concentrated flavour profile.

What makes our Premium Himalayan Chhurpe special:

Authentic Ladakhi Cheese: Made using traditional methods and sourced directly from Ladakh, ensuring an authentic taste of the Himalayas.
Traditionally Sun-Dried: The cheese is slowly dried under the high Himalayan sun, developing its characteristic hard texture and concentrated flavour. No artificial preservatives or additives are used.
Rich in Nutrients: A good source of protein and calcium, providing essential nutrients for a healthy lifestyle.
Unique flavour Profile: Chhurpe offers a savory, slightly smoky, and tangy flavour that develops further with age.
Long Shelf Life: The traditional sun-drying process naturally preserves the cheese, giving it an exceptionally long shelf life, making it an ideal travel or trekking companion.
Naturally Gluten-Free: A great option for gluten sensitivities.

Traditionally, Chhurpe is enjoyed by slowly gnawing on small pieces, allowing the flavour to develop over time. It can also be:

A nutritious snack: A great source of protein and energy, perfect for outdoor activities and trekking.
Added to soups and stews: Grated Chhurpe adds a rich, savory depth to broths and stews.

Important Note: Due to its extremely hard texture, Chhurpe is meant to be slowly consumed. It is not easily chewed or bitten into like softer cheeses. It is made to be held in the mouth and softened, releasing its unique flavours gradually.
