About Parmesan cheese block
Parmesan cheese, or Parmigiano-Reggiano, is a hard, aged cheese originating from Italy, specifically the Emilia-Romagna region. Made from raw cow’s milk, it is known for its nutty, savory flavor and granular texture. A versatile ingredient in Italian cuisine, Parmesan is commonly grated over pasta, salads, soups, or enjoyed on its own. It’s rich in protein, calcium, and phosphorus, making it beneficial for bone health and muscle repair. Parmesan is naturally low in lactose due to its long aging process, making it easier to digest for those with mild lactose intolerance. However, it is relatively high in sodium and saturated fat, so portion control is key. With its robust flavor, a small amount can enhance dishes without adding large quantities of calories or fat, making it both a flavorful and functional addition to meals.
