Raschera is a semi-soft Italian cheese from the Piedmont region, crafted from cow’s milk, though variations may include goat or sheep milk. It boasts a pale yellow interior with small, irregular holes and is typically aged for one to two months. Its flavor profile is creamy, slightly tangy, and delicately nutty, making it a versatile addition to various dishes in Italian cuisine. Nutritionally, Raschera is rich in protein and calcium, supporting bone health and muscle function. It also provides essential vitamins like B12 and A, which contribute to energy metabolism and vision. However, like many cheeses, it is high in saturated fat and sodium, so moderation is recommended for heart health and blood pressure management. Raschera pairs beautifully with fresh fruits, light salads, or whole-grain bread, offering a flavorful way to enjoy its nutritional benefits responsibly.
