About Gauda

Gouda is a creamy, semi-hard cheese that originated in the Netherlands and is named after the town where it was historically traded. Made primarily from cow’s milk, it boasts a smooth texture and a mild to rich flavor that intensifies with aging. Gouda is a good source of calcium, protein, and vitamins like B12, which contribute to bone health and energy production. However, it is also relatively high in saturated fat and sodium, which should be consumed in moderation. Younger Gouda is softer and sweeter, while aged Gouda develops a firmer texture and nutty complexity. Widely versatile, Gouda complements dishes in European-inspired cuisines and pairs well with fruits, nuts, or bread. Enjoyed as part of a balanced diet, its nutrient profile offers health benefits but should be weighed against its fat and sodium content for those monitoring their intake.
