Whey Water: How to Include It in Your Diet

Are you familiar with the byproduct of making paneer at home – the leftover water known as whey water?

Often overlooked, this ingredient can actually elevate the flavour and nutritional value of your dishes.

With its rich protein content, whey water can aid in muscle growth, and repair, and potentially contribute to weight loss goals.

Blend whey water into your smoothies for an extra nutritious kick. Combine it with fruits and yoghurt for a refreshing and healthy beverage.

Use whey water instead of plain water when preparing soups or curries. It adds a creamy texture and a hint of paneer flavour, enhancing the overall taste and nutritional value of the dish.

Cook rice or pulao with whey water to add flavour and richness. It’s an easy way to incorporate more nutrients into your meal.

Use whey water in place of regular water when making dough or batter. It adds moisture and a tangy flavour, perfect for bread, roti, or chapatis.

Add whey water to marinades or sauces for meats, vegetables, or paneer. It enhances the flavours and works well in creamy or tomato-based sauces.

Use whey water in place of regular water or milk in baked goods like bread, muffins, pizza bases, buns or pancakes. It adds a subtle tangy flavour and helps create a softer texture.

Use whey water to cook legumes like lentils, beans, or chickpeas. The whey water adds flavour and nutrients to the legumes, making them more digestible and enhancing their nutritional value. Plus, it can help reduce cooking time.
