Red cheddar cheese is a vibrant variety of cheddar, known for its rich, tangy flavor and signature orange-red hue, achieved by adding annatto, a natural food coloring derived from seeds. Originating in England, cheddar has long been a staple in British and global cuisines, featured in sandwiches, casseroles, and cheese boards. Made primarily from cow’s milk, it provides a good source of protein and calcium, supporting bone health and muscle function. However, red cheddar is high in fat and sodium, so moderation is recommended for those watching their cholesterol or salt intake. It also contains vitamin A, which contributes to eye health and immunity. This versatile cheese adds depth and color to dishes, making it a favorite in savory recipes while delivering a robust flavor profile loved by cheese enthusiasts worldwide.
