About Old cheese
Old cheese, often referred to as aged cheese, is celebrated for its intense flavor and crumbly texture, achieved through a prolonged aging process. Common examples include Parmesan, Gouda, and Cheddar, originating from European cuisines, particularly Italian and Dutch traditions. The extended maturation allows moisture to evaporate, concentrating proteins and fats, which enhances richness and develops complex savory notes. Old cheese is a source of calcium, protein, and essential vitamins like B12, supporting bone health and muscle function. However, its high sodium and saturated fat content should be consumed in moderation, especially for those managing cardiovascular health. The aging process also reduces lactose levels, making it easier to digest for people with lactose intolerance. Old cheese’s bold taste makes it a versatile ingredient, ideal for culinary applications ranging from grating over pasta to serving on charcuterie boards. Its robust profile remains a gourmet favorite worldwide.
