Provolone is a semi-hard Italian cheese made from cow’s milk, originating in Southern Italy. Known for its smooth texture and mild, slightly tangy flavor, Provolone is often aged for 2-3 months, with varieties ranging from delicate and creamy to sharp and robust. As a good source of protein and calcium, it supports muscle health and strong bones. However, it is also high in saturated fat and sodium, which should be consumed in moderation to maintain heart health and overall balance in a diet. Provolone is versatile in cuisine, commonly melted in sandwiches, shredded over pasta, or enjoyed on charcuterie boards. Its high energy content makes it satisfying, but portion control is key for those monitoring calorie intake. Provolone’s rich flavor and balanced nutrient profile make it a staple choice in both traditional Italian dishes and everyday meals worldwide.
