Natural Pastures Water Buffalo Paneer

Water buffalo paneer

Simple ingredients. Clean flavour. Exceptional milk.

Our Water Buffalo Paneer is made in small batches from rich Vancouver Island water buffalo milk, using a clean, straightforward recipe that lets the quality of the milk speak for itself.

Paneer is one of the most beautifully uncomplicated cheeses — fresh, mild and wonderfully versatile. Our water buffalo milk gives it a naturally creamy richness, a clean dairy flavour and a firm yet tender texture that holds together beautifully when sliced, cubed or cooked.

With its simple ingredient profile and fresh character, this is a cheese that fits easily into everyday cooking. Cube it into curries, grill it until golden, pan-sear it with vegetables, crumble it over salads or add it to wraps and bowls. Because Paneer does not melt like many other cheeses, it keeps its shape when heated while developing a delicious golden exterior.

Its mild flavour also makes it the perfect canvas for spices, herbs, marinades and sauces — from traditional Indian dishes to simple West Coast meals built around fresh vegetables and local ingredients.

Made from Vancouver Island water buffalo milk, our Paneer is naturally made with A2 beta-casein protein and reflects what we love about good food: quality milk, basic ingredients and as little fuss as possible.

Small batch. Simple ingredients. Fresh water buffalo milk. Clean, creamy flavour.

    On Vancouver Island, food has a way of carrying the story of where it comes from. For Michael Tchao, his journey around the Island is not just about travel. It is about meeting the people, seeing the land, and understanding the care and the science, that goes into food before it ever reaches a plate. […]
