About Queso gouda

Queso Gouda is a creamy, semi-hard cheese originating from the Netherlands, named after the Dutch city of Gouda. Made primarily from cow's milk, it boasts a rich, buttery flavor with slightly sweet and nutty undertones. Gouda is high in essential nutrients like calcium and protein, which support bone health and muscle maintenance. It also contains vitamins such as B12, important for energy production and nervous system function. However, due to its fat and sodium content, Gouda should be enjoyed in moderation, particularly for individuals monitoring heart health or sodium intake. Younger varieties are milder and softer, while aged Gouda develops a firmer texture and sharper taste. A versatile cheese, it's used in various cuisines—enjoy it melted, sliced, or as part of a cheese board. While a flavorful addition to meals, balance is key to including it in a healthy diet.
