Beaufort is a traditional French cheese originating from the Savoie region of the Alps. It’s a firm, raw cow’s milk cheese with a creamy texture and nutty, mildly tangy flavor, often enjoyed in fondue, gratins, or paired with fruits and bread. Rich in protein, calcium, and essential nutrients like phosphorus and vitamin A, Beaufort supports bone health and overall vitality. Its natural aging process enhances digestibility and provides probiotics important for gut health. However, like many cheeses, it is high in saturated fat and sodium, which should be consumed in moderation, particularly for individuals monitoring heart health or blood pressure. Beaufort’s distinct taste and balanced nutritional benefits make it a cherished ingredient in Alpine cuisine and an indulgent, yet nourishing addition to meals when enjoyed thoughtfully.
