About Shaved parmesan cheese
Shaved Parmesan cheese is a flavorful and versatile ingredient originating from Italy, specifically the Emilia-Romagna region, where traditional Parmigiano-Reggiano is crafted. Made from cow's milk, this cheese undergoes a meticulous aging process that can last up to 36 months, enhancing its rich, nutty flavor and crystalline texture. Shaved Parmesan is often used to top salads, pasta, soups, and even roasted vegetables, adding a savory depth to dishes. Nutritionally, it is a good source of protein, calcium, and essential vitamins like B12, supporting bone health and muscle function. However, it is relatively high in sodium and saturated fat, so moderation is recommended, especially for those monitoring their heart health or blood pressure. Its concentrated flavor means even a small serving can elevate a dish without overpowering it, making it a beloved choice in both gourmet and everyday cooking.
