What is Skyr Cream Cheese Dip?
Skyr Cream Cheese Dip combines skyr—a thick, cultured dairy food from Iceland—with cream cheese to make a smooth, spoonable dip. It may be kept plain or seasoned with herbs, spices or a little lemon, depending on the recipe.
Its mild tang and creamy texture pair well with crunchy vegetables, crackers and toasted bread. Serve it as a snack or party dip, spread it in a sandwich, or add a spoonful alongside a simple meal.
