Grana Padano is a hard, aged cheese originating from the Po River Valley in northern Italy, known for its rich, nutty flavor and granular texture. Made from unpasteurized cow's milk, it undergoes a lengthy aging process, typically ranging from 9 months to over 2 years, which enhances its complex taste and crumbly consistency. Like Parmesan, it is commonly used in Italian cuisine, grated over pasta, risottos, and salads or enjoyed on its own. Nutrition-wise, Grana Padano is an excellent source of protein, calcium, and essential vitamins like B12, supporting bone health and energy metabolism. However, it is also high in sodium and saturated fats, so moderation is key for those managing heart health or hypertension. Its robust flavor means even small amounts can elevate dishes, making it a versatile and indulgent addition to a balanced diet.
