Madzun

Also known as Matsoni, Matzoni, matsoon, matsoun, matzoun, madzoon, madzoun, macun

Matzoon (, matsun, or ) or matsoni (, ''mats'oni'') is a fermented milk product of Armenian origin found in Armenia and Georgia. The Caspian Sea yogurt commercialized in Japan is said to be the same type of yogurt as matzoon, but a comparison of microbiota and viscosity found that the two are entirely different. Georgian matsoni has been a protected geographical indication in Georgia since 24 January 2012.

El Madzun (denominado en armenio matsun մածուն) o Matsoni (en georgiano: მაწონი), conocido en Japón como yogur del Mar Caspio, es un producto elaborado con leche fermentada, de origen armenio, ampliamente distribuido en las cocinas de los pueblos del Cáucaso. Se trata de un yogur a base de leche fermentada que suele tomarse como desayuno. Se puede elaborar con leche, yogur y crema de leche. Este tipo de yogur a veces se saboriza con ajo picado. El madzun suele acompañar a veces el Shish Kebab.
