About Shaved romano cheese
Shaved Romano cheese is a flavorful, hard, aged cheese traditionally crafted from sheep’s milk, although variations may include cow’s or goat’s milk. Originating from Italy, it carries a rich heritage rooted in Roman culinary traditions. Recognized for its sharp, salty taste and dry, crumbly texture, it is commonly used in Italian dishes like pasta, salads, and soups, providing a bold umami boost. Nutritionally, Romano cheese is a rich source of protein and calcium, promoting muscle health and strong bones. It also contains essential vitamins like B12 and phosphorous. However, its high sodium and saturated fat content should be considered when incorporating it into a balanced diet. Best enjoyed in moderation, shaved Romano cheese exemplifies a perfect garnish to elevate a variety of Mediterranean-inspired meals while adding depth and complexity to their flavor profiles.
