Paneer

Paneer , also known as ponir ( pronounced [po̯ni̯r]), is a fresh acid-set cheese common in cuisine of the Indian subcontinent made from full-fat buffalo milk or cow milk. It is a non-aged, non-melting soft cheese made by curdling milk with a fruit- or vegetable-derived acid, such as lemon juice. The word paneer entered English from the Hindi-Urdu term panīr, which comes from Persian panir (پنیر) 'cheese', which comes from Old Iranian. Armenian panir (պանիր), Azerbaijani pəndir, Bengali ponir (পনির), Turkish peynir and Turkmen peýnir, all derived from Persian panir, also refer to cheese of any type.
