What it is
Asiago cheese is a semi-hard or hard cow's milk cheese that originated in Italy. It is produced from pasteurized or unpasteurized cow's milk, rennet, and salt. Depending on its age, it can range from a mild, fresh cheese (Asiago Fresco) to a sharper, aged cheese (Asiago d'Allevo).
Why it's used
Asiago cheese is commonly used in many food products for its distinct flavor and texture. It is often found in pasta dishes, salads, sandwiches, and baked goods. Manufacturers include it to add a savory, nutty, or tangy taste and a creamy or crumbly texture to their products.
Health notes
Asiago cheese is a common food ingredient and is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) when consumed as part of a typical diet. It is a source of protein and calcium. As a dairy product, it contains saturated fat and sodium, which the Dietary Guidelines for Americans (2025-2030) advise consuming in moderation. The FDA recommends limiting sodium intake to 2,300 mg per day.
Allergen info
Asiago cheese is derived from milk, which is one of the nine major food allergens identified by the FDA.
