Paneer also known as indian cheese is often used as its own respective ingredient. Cheese and other dairy products are often the main source of protein for many vegetarians all throughout India The extensive use of dairy products can be traced thousands of years back into india’s history to the even the Vedic age (1500-500 BCE) proving this ingredient as a true traditional staple of the cuisine. The “importaton” of such dairy producing livestock is thought to be the acts of west asian nomads during the days of Mohenjo Daro and Harappa, two of the very first “civilizations” or city states to have existed within the indus valley region that India now resides in.
