Powdered Parmesan Cheese is a finely grated, shelf-stable cheese made from aged cow's milk. Originating from Italy, Parmesan is a staple in Italian cuisine, often used as a topping for pasta, soups, and salads, or as a seasoning in various dishes. The powdered version typically includes anti-caking agents such as cellulose to prevent clumping. Nutritionally, it is a good source of protein and calcium, which support muscle and bone health, while its robust flavor allows for smaller amounts to be used compared to other cheeses. However, it is also high in sodium and saturated fat, so moderation is key for maintaining a balanced diet. To enjoy its flavor and health benefits, use sparingly as a condiment rather than a main ingredient.
