Cheese Curd Dog Treats

Trader Joe's Chhurpi Puffs Dog Treats are Made from Dried Cheese

— February 9, 2023 — Lifestyle
Trader Joe's knows that dogs love cheese just as much as humans, which is why its new Chhurpi Puffs Dog Treats are sure to be enjoyed by every pup.

For those unfamiliar, Chhurpi (or durkha), is an extremely hard Himalayan cheese that's traditionally made from Yak’s milk or buttermilk. After the milk is boiled, the curds are hung out to dry, sliced up, and then dried out over a fire. This process results in some delicious cheese curds that are an excellent snack for humans and dogs alike. Trader Joe's Chhurpi Puffs Dog Treats are a pet-friendly version that takes the snack one step further by microwaving the chhurpi nuggets. This process forces the cheese to puff up and create an even more tantalizing treat for pets.
