Gouda is a semi-hard cheese originating from the Netherlands, named after the city of Gouda where it was historically traded. Made from cow’s milk, it has a creamy texture and mild, nutty flavor that becomes more robust and complex as it ages. It is rich in protein, calcium, and vitamin B12, making it beneficial for bone health and energy metabolism. Gouda also contains saturated fats and sodium, which should be consumed in moderation. Aged varieties are lower in lactose, making them suitable for individuals with lactose sensitivity. Gouda is versatile in cuisine, frequently used in sandwiches, sauces, and baked dishes. Its nutrient-rich profile and satisfying taste make it a popular choice, though mindful portion sizes are recommended to balance its caloric and fat content.
