Strong cheddar cheese is a bold, tangy variety of the classic cheddar, known for its rich, sharp flavor. Originating from England, this cheese is made primarily from cow's milk and undergoes a lengthy aging process, often 12 months or more, to develop its intense taste and crumbly texture. High in protein and calcium, strong cheddar supports bone health and muscle function, while also offering vitamin A and phosphorus. However, it is calorie-dense and contains significant saturated fat and sodium, so moderation is key. Its robust flavor makes it a perfect addition to sandwiches, baked dishes, or as a standalone snack in cheese boards. Whether melted, shredded, or sliced, strong cheddar remains a versatile and savory favorite in cuisines worldwide.
