Dadhimaṇḍa (दधिमण्ड) refers to “whey” or “cream”, which is a by-product of cheese making. It is formed as the remaining liquid after milk has been curdled and strained. It is used throughout Ayurvedic literature such as the Caraka-saṃhitā and Suśruta-saṃhitā. The word Dadhimaṇḍa is composed of Dadhi (‘curd’) and Maṇḍa (‘cream of milk’)
