Squacquerone cheese is a soft, creamy cheese originating from the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy. Made from cow’s milk, it has a mild, tangy flavor and a velvety texture that spreads easily, making it a staple in Italian cuisine, especially served with piadina flatbread. Rich in calcium and protein, Squacquerone supports bone health and muscle repair, but its high fat content, including saturated fats, suggests it should be enjoyed in moderation. Unlike aged cheeses, it has lower sodium levels, which can be appealing for those monitoring their salt intake. This fresh cheese is best consumed shortly after production and is prized for its ability to complement both savory and sweet dishes.
