According to the National Institutes of Health, while milk has a protein content of around 3.5%, paneer typically contains 18-20 grams of protein per 100g, making it a significantly more concentrated source. This stark difference is a direct result of the paneer-making process, which physically separates and concentrates milk proteins and fats from the watery whey.
