What it is
Asiago cheese blend is a mixture of Asiago cheese and other cheeses, often including Parmesan, Romano, or mozzarella. Asiago cheese is a hard, granular Italian cheese made from cow's milk, originating from the Veneto region of Italy. It is typically aged for varying periods, developing a sharper, nuttier flavor as it matures.
Why it's used
Manufacturers use Asiago cheese blend to add a rich, savory, and slightly sharp cheese flavor to foods. It is commonly found in pasta dishes, pizzas, bread products, and as a topping for various savory items. The blend offers a complex cheese profile that enhances the overall taste of processed foods.
