paneer
Paneer is characterized by its firm texture and lack of elasticity, meaning it does not melt when heated. This property makes it a staple in South Asian cooking, where it is typically cubed and fried or simmered in thick gravies. It is often compared to tofu in texture and culinary application, though it is a dairy product.
As a mass noun referring to a type of cheese, it is typically treated as uncountable. When referring to specific portions or varieties, speakers use partitive constructions such as a block of paneer or a piece of paneer.
