About Swiss chees
Swiss cheese is a semi-hard cheese known for its signature holes, or "eyes," which form during fermentation due to carbon dioxide released by bacteria. Originating in Switzerland, particularly the Emmental region, it is made from cow’s milk and has a mild, nutty flavor. Swiss cheese is rich in protein and calcium, contributing to strong bones and muscle health. It also contains phosphorus, which supports energy metabolism. While its fat content provides energy, it is important to note that Swiss cheese can be high in saturated fat and sodium, which should be consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet. Its relatively low sodium compared to other cheeses makes it a heart-healthier choice for those monitoring salt intake. Swiss cheese works well in sandwiches, salads, and baked dishes, making it a versatile component in European and global cuisine.
