About Swiss
Swiss cheese, originating from Switzerland, is a semi-hard cheese known for its distinctive nutty flavor and signature holes formed during fermentation. Typically made from cow’s milk, it undergoes a slow aging process that enhances its creamy texture and robust taste. Swiss cheese is an excellent source of calcium, essential for maintaining strong bones and teeth, as well as protein, which supports muscle growth and repair. It also contains vitamins such as B12 and phosphorus, contributing to energy production and overall health. While it is relatively lower in sodium and fat compared to some other cheeses, moderation is key due to its saturated fat content. Popular in European and American cuisines, Swiss cheese is versatile, pairing well with sandwiches, fondue, and baked dishes. Its rich nutritional profile and savory characteristics make it a satisfying addition to a balanced diet when consumed thoughtfully.
