Matzoon (matsoon, matsoun,matzoun, madzoon, madzoun macun, matson, matsoni) (Template:Lang-hy, Georgian: მაწონი mats'oni) is a fermented milk product of Georgian origin. Found found in Caucasian cuisine, particularly in Georgia and Armenia. It is very similar to yogurt.
It is made with Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus lactic acid bacteria.
Matsoni is made from cow's milk (mostly), goat's milk, sheep's milk, or a mix of them and a culture from previous productions.
In Japan, Caspian Sea Yogurt (カスピ海ヨーグルト) is popular; soy milk is sometimes added to the milk.
Etymology
The word matzoon came into English from the Armenian madzun
