About Parmegiano reggiano

Parmigiano Reggiano, often called the "King of Cheeses," is a hard, aged cheese originating from the Parma, Reggio Emilia, and Modena regions of Italy. Made from raw cow's milk, it is crafted under strict regulations to ensure its authenticity and quality. Aged for a minimum of 12 months, this cheese develops a rich, nutty flavor and a granular texture. Parmigiano Reggiano is naturally lactose-free and packed with protein, calcium, phosphorus, and essential vitamins, making it a nutrient-dense addition to meals. Its complex flavor profile works in Italian dishes like pasta, risotto, and salads. While rich in nutrients, it is high in sodium and fat, so moderation is key when incorporating it into a balanced diet. Sprinkle it for a burst of flavor without overindulging. Its lengthy aging process makes it easy to digest and a favorite among cheese lovers worldwide.
