Eezgii is a delicious, traditional dairy product from Mongolia. It’s made by cooking milk and adding a bit of kefir or yogurt.
This causes the milk to curdle and form into small pieces of cheese. The cheese is then cooked until all liquids have evaporated, and finally roasted until it turns golden brown.
Eezgii is often compared to aaruul (dried curd snacks), but eezgii is boiled first, giving it a more roasted or caramelized flavor and a darker color. It’s more of a travel or winter snack and sometimes gifted as a symbol of nourishment and tradition.
Eezgii is a healthy, nutritious snack that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. Thanks for trying eezgii!
