Parmesan Cheese

Parmesan Cheese

Everyday

Parmesan is a hard, granular cheese originating from Italy, renowned for its complex, savory flavor that intensifies with age. This cheese is traditionally made from unpasteurized cow's milk and aged for a minimum of 12 months, with longer aging resulting in a more pronounced, nutty taste and crumbly texture. Parmesan is frequently grated over pasta dishes, shaved into salads, or enjoyed as a table cheese, adding a rich umami element to a variety of cuisines.
