About Slice of parmigiano cheese

Parmigiano Reggiano, often called Parmesan cheese, is an Italian culinary treasure hailing from the Emilia-Romagna and Lombardy regions. This hard, aged cheese is made from cow's milk, following strict traditional processes, and is aged for a minimum of 12 months, giving it its signature crumbly texture and rich, nutty flavor. Nutritionally, a slice of Parmigiano is packed with protein and calcium, supporting muscle maintenance and bone health. It is comparatively low in lactose, making it easier to digest for individuals with lactose sensitivity. It also provides essential vitamins such as B12 and phosphorus. However, Parmigiano is calorically dense and high in sodium, so moderation is key when enjoying this cheese. Whether grated over pasta, blended into soups, or savored on its own, its robust taste and nutrient profile make it a remarkable addition to a balanced diet with mindful portioning.
