Krasnoyarsk experts explained the benefits of dumplings with cottage cheese

Krasnoyarsk specialists from Rospotrebnadzor spoke about the benefits of dumplings with cottage cheese – a popular dish in Russian cuisine. According to them, high-quality dumplings can be not only tasty, but also healthy.

“Curd filling is a source of selenium, which is necessary for the health of the thyroid gland, and protein, which strengthens the immune system. Dumplings also contain carbohydrates, so they will help restore strength after physical activity,” experts explain.

For maximum benefit, experts advise paying attention to the composition. The ideal filling should contain only cottage cheese, sugar, vanillin and egg. Some manufacturers add palm oil, starch or semolina – such products are less healthy.

When choosing ready-made dumplings, it is important to check the packaging: it should be transparent, without traces of re-freezing. Cracks in the dough, snow and ice inside are signs of violation of storage conditions.
