I love paneer and sometimes just eat it raw with chaat masala. Now im 14 weeks and wondering if raw is safe ya should i always cook it first. Pls clear my doubt.
When I was admitted at my hospital, the dietician clearly told me that only thoroughly cooked paneer is allowed. They strictly advise against any raw dairy items, so always make sure it is cooked well.
Why take any risk with raw paneer and end up with food poisoning? Hospital admissions and infection treatments are so expensive, so just fry or boil the paneer properly at home before eating.
My baby is a naughty toddler now, but back when I was pregnant, I loved paneer! I never ate it raw though, I always sauteed it in a little butter just to be 100% safe.
I would highly advise against eating raw paneer because of listeria risk. It's always safest to check with your gynac before adding anything raw to your diet during these nine months.
I know how those sudden cravings make you want to just grab a piece of raw paneer from the fridge! But please cook it gently with some mild spices to keep you and your precious baby safe, it's just a matter of a few months.
