About Lemon cheese sauce

Lemon Cheese Sauce is a tangy and creamy blend often found in European-inspired dishes, combining citrus sharpness with rich, velvety cheese. Typically made from fresh lemon juice, grated cheese like Parmesan or cheddar, butter, and a touch of cream, this sauce is perfect for adding zest to vegetables, pasta, or seafood. The lemon contributes a boost of vitamin C and vibrant flavor, while the cheese offers calcium and protein. However, its richness comes with higher amounts of saturated fat and sodium, depending on the type and quantity of cheese and butter used. This indulgent sauce is best enjoyed in moderation, balancing its bold taste with lighter, nutrient-dense pairings.
