Old Cheddar is a firm, aged cheese known for its sharp, tangy flavor and crumbly texture. Originating in England, Cheddar has become a global favorite, celebrated in cuisines worldwide. Aging can range from a few months to several years, with "Old Cheddar" typically matured for 12 months or longer, deepening its complexity and intensity. Nutritionally, Old Cheddar is a rich source of protein, calcium, and vitamins like B12, supporting bone health and energy metabolism. However, it's high in saturated fats and sodium, which should be consumed in moderation, especially for individuals monitoring cardiovascular health. Old Cheddar contains little to no lactose due to the aging process, making it more suitable for those with lactose intolerance. Its robust flavor makes it a versatile ingredient in dishes, enhancing everything from gourmet sandwiches to casseroles and cheese boards.
