About Sharp cheese

Sharp cheese, often made from aged cheddar, is a flavorful dairy product known for its tangy and bold taste. Originating from England, this cheese has become a staple in global cuisines, adding depth to recipes like casseroles, sandwiches, and sauces. Sharp cheese is rich in protein, calcium, and essential vitamins like B12, which support muscle health and bone structure. Its fats and calories, however, should be consumed in moderation, especially by those managing cholesterol or weight. Older, sharper varieties typically contain less lactose, making them more tolerable for individuals with lactose sensitivity. Versatile and nutrient-dense, sharp cheese is a delicious way to elevate dishes while contributing beneficial nutrients when enjoyed responsibly.
