Stracchino, also known as Crescenza, is a soft, creamy Italian cheese originating from the Lombardy region. Made from cow’s milk, this fresh cheese has a mild, tangy flavor and a smooth, spreadable texture, making it a versatile ingredient in Italian cuisine. Typically unaged, Stracchino is rich in protein and calcium, essential for bone health and muscle function. However, it is also high in saturated fat and sodium, so moderation is recommended for those managing cholesterol or blood pressure. Its creamy consistency makes it a delightful addition to salads, focaccia, and pasta dishes or spread on bread. Stracchino is best enjoyed fresh and is often appreciated for its delicate, milky taste and nutritional benefits when enjoyed as part of a balanced diet.
