Queijo ralado, or grated cheese, is a staple in numerous cuisines, particularly in Italian and Brazilian cooking. Typically made from aged cheeses like Parmesan, Pecorino Romano, or their local equivalents, it delivers a sharp, savory flavor that enhances pasta, risottos, soups, and casseroles. This ingredient is rich in calcium and protein, essential for bone health and muscle maintenance. However, it is also high in sodium and saturated fats, which should be consumed in moderation, especially for individuals monitoring heart health. Depending on the brand or type, queijo ralado may contain additives like anti-caking agents. Opting for freshly grated cheese can minimize preservatives and enhance taste. A versatile and flavorful addition to meals, queijo ralado balances indulgence with nutritional value when used thoughtfully.
