About Cantal cheese
Cantal cheese, originating from the Auvergne region of France, is one of the country’s oldest cheeses, dating back over 2,000 years. Made from cow’s milk, it boasts a firm texture and a tangy, nutty flavor that intensifies with age. Cantal comes in three varieties: jeune (young), entre-deux (semi-aged), and vieux (aged), offering a range of taste and texture experiences. Rich in protein and calcium, Cantal supports bone health and muscle development. However, it is also high in fat and sodium, making moderation key for a balanced diet. Cantal's versatility makes it a staple in French cuisine, often featured in salads, melted into dishes like mashed potatoes (aligot), or paired with fruits and breads. Whether enjoyed fresh or aged, Cantal provides a nutrient-rich option for cheese lovers seeking a taste of French culinary tradition.
