About Parmesan cheese wheel
Parmesan Cheese Wheels are iconic to Italian cuisine, specifically from the Parma region, where they are crafted using traditional methods. Made from cow’s milk, these large wheels consist of minimal ingredients—milk, salt, and rennet—and are aged for a minimum of 12 months to develop their rich, nutty flavor and crystalline texture. Parmesan is rich in protein, calcium, and phosphorus, making it a beneficial choice for bone health, while its robust flavor can elevate dishes without requiring large quantities. However, it is also high in sodium and saturated fat, so moderation is key, especially for individuals monitoring heart health or sodium intake. Versatile and packed with umami, Parmesan enhances pasta, salads, and soups while providing an authentic taste of Italy.
