The texture of the Tvorog is soft and granular, with a slightly creamy and tangy taste 😋. Although Cottage cheese and Tvorog are essentially the same, Tvorog has a slightly tangier naturally soured taste because of the live bacterial cultures used to curdle the milk. It's a little like cottage cheese and ricotta cheese, but firmer, drier, and creamier, with a fairly smooth texture.
Tvorog is one of the richest sources of complete protein. Due to denaturation, milk protein becomes more available for cleavage by proteolytic enzymes, so tvorog is easily digested. Tvorog contains a large amount of calcium in an easily digestible form, as well as vitamins B1, B2, PP, C and others.
Also, the proteins in cottage cheese are particularly effective at helping you build muscle. Casein accounts for 80% of its protein content and is slowly absorbed. For this reason, consuming it before bed has been shown to increase metabolism and muscle synthesis overnight without affecting the breakdown of fats.
