Grated Parmesan is a finely shredded version of Parmesan cheese, a hard, aged cheese originally from Italy. Known for its nutty, savory flavor, it’s a staple in Italian cuisine, used to enhance dishes like pasta, risotto, and soups. Made from cow’s milk, it typically contains milk fat, protein, calcium, and sodium. Grated Parmesan offers a concentrated source of protein and essential minerals, such as calcium, supporting bone health. Its bold flavor allows smaller amounts to pack a punch, potentially reducing the need for added salt in recipes. However, it’s also high in sodium and saturated fat, so moderation is key for those watching their heart health or sodium intake. Look for freshly grated options without added fillers for the best flavor and nutritional value. Store properly in an airtight container to maintain freshness and prevent clumping.
