What it is

Havarti is a semi-soft Danish cheese made from cow's milk. It is a pressed, unripened cheese, meaning it is not aged. It has a buttery aroma and a mild, slightly tangy flavor.

Why it's used

Havarti is often used as a table cheese, sliced for sandwiches, or melted into dishes. Its smooth texture and mild flavor make it a versatile ingredient in many prepared foods, including pasta dishes, sandwiches, and casseroles.

Health notes

Havarti cheese is a dairy product and a source of protein and calcium. The FDA considers cheese to be generally recognized as safe (GRAS). Like other full-fat dairy products, it contains saturated fat and cholesterol. The WHO/IARC has classified processed meat as carcinogenic, but has not evaluated cheese specifically in this regard. Evidence on the health effects of moderate cheese consumption is mixed, with some studies suggesting potential benefits and others raising concerns about saturated fat intake.

Allergen info

Havarti cheese is made from cow's milk, which is one of the nine FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
