About Edam cheese
Edam cheese is a semi-hard cheese originating from the Netherlands, named after the town of Edam. Recognizable by its mild, buttery flavor and signature red wax coating, Edam is typically made from cow’s milk and contains a moderate fat content. Compared to other cheeses, it is lower in fat, with about 28% fat in its dry content, making it a slightly lighter option for cheese enthusiasts. Edam provides a good source of protein, calcium, and essential vitamins like B12, which contribute to bone health and energy production. However, like most cheeses, it is relatively high in sodium, so moderation is key for those monitoring their salt intake. Edam’s versatile texture makes it ideal for snacking, melting, or pairing with fruits and bread in various cuisines. Its long shelf life and mild taste make it a popular cheese choice worldwide.
