About Queijo gouda

Gouda is a popular semi-hard cheese originating from the Netherlands, named after the Dutch city where it was historically traded. Made from cow's milk, Gouda boasts a mild, creamy flavor that intensifies and becomes nuttier as it ages. Its rich golden color and smooth texture make it a versatile choice in culinary applications, from snacking to melting in recipes. Nutritionally, Gouda is a good source of protein and calcium, essential for muscle health and bone strength. It also contains vitamins like B12 and A, which support energy production and vision. However, it is high in saturated fat and sodium, so moderation is key. Younger Gouda varieties tend to be softer and milder, while aged versions, such as "Extra Aged Gouda," are firmer and more robust in flavor. Whether enjoyed on its own or paired with fruits, nuts, or wine, Gouda remains a timeless favorite among cheese enthusiasts.
