About Maasdam
Maasdam is a semi-hard Dutch cheese known for its creamy texture, distinctive holes, and nutty, buttery flavor. Originating from the Netherlands, it is inspired by Swiss Emmental but has a milder taste and a shorter aging period of 1-3 months. Made primarily from cow's milk, Maasdam is rich in protein, calcium, and essential vitamins such as B12, which support bone health and muscle function. However, it is relatively high in saturated fats and sodium, which should be consumed in moderation, particularly by those managing heart health or blood pressure. Popular in European cuisine, Maasdam pairs well with bread, fruit, or wine and melts beautifully, making it a versatile ingredient in dishes like fondue, sandwiches, and pasta. While indulgent, it provides valuable nutrients that can be enjoyed as part of a balanced diet.
