Paneer, also known as Indian cottage cheese, is prepared from curdled hot milk using lime juice, vinegar, and citric acid. It is a non-fermentative and non-melting cheese with a sweet acidic flavor and soft spongy texture. It is high in nutritional value and can be consumed raw, cooked, grated, sliced, and crumbled. It is enriched with calcium, protein, and vitamin D and aids in building stronger bones and teeth, healthy heart muscles, and smooth nerve functioning. It is also fortified with selenium and potassium that help prevent memory loss and used as a primary ingredient in Indian traditional cuisine and added with other vegetables to prepare savory dry, semi-dry, and gravy delicacies. Besides this, paneer is also used in preparing Indian sweets and snacks, which include nuggets, paneer tikka, dumplings, rasgulla and ras malai.

India Paneer Market Trends:

At present, the rising prevalence of various bone disorders due to calcium deficiency is catalyzing the demand for paneer and milk-based products in India. Paneer is rich in essential nutrients, which include vitamins B and D, phosphorus, dietary fiber, and omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. As a result, individuals are increasingly incorporating paneer into their daily diet. In addition, the rising awareness among health-conscious individuals and fitness enthusiasts about the benefits of consuming a moderate amount of paneer is currently supporting the overall product sales across the country. Apart from this, the increasing number of hotels, cloud kitchens, and quick service restaurants (QSRs) is driving the demand for paneer for preparing various Indian traditional cuisines and salads. Furthermore, changing dietary patterns, shifting consumer inclination towards convenience food due to hectic schedules, and the rising product adoption in the preparation of western foods, such as pizzas, sandwiches, wraps, and burgers, are offering lucrative opportunities to manufacturers. Additionally, leading manufacturers are focusing on expanding their product portfolio by introducing new varieties of paneer, including fiber-enriched, skim milk, masala, protein-enriched, low-fat, and vegetable impregnated. Moreover, the emerging trend of food vlogging, a rise in culinary tourism in India, social gatherings on special occasions, and advancements in the cold supply chain are some other factors strengthening the growth of the market.
