Description

Mint Green Cream is a fresh and aromatic ingredient commonly used in cooking recipes to add a refreshing and herbal touch. It is a creamy preparation made from fresh mint leaves, mixed with cream, yogurt, or cream cheese, and sometimes a bit of garlic, lemon, or olive oil to intensify its flavor.

Its origin is deeply linked to Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisines, where mint is a typical herb to accompany both cold and hot dishes. This type of cream is used as a sauce, dip, or dressing, ideal for meats, fish, salads, and appetizers, providing a vibrant and refreshing flavor.

Properties: Mint green cream is not only delicious but also offers digestive benefits and antioxidant properties thanks to the mint, which is known to aid digestion and relieve stomach discomfort. Furthermore, the creamy texture adds smoothness and richness to dishes.

In different regions of Latin America, mint green cream may also be known as mint dressing, mint green sauce, or simply mint cream, depending on the culinary context and specific preparation.
