What it is

Organic Parmesan is a hard, dry cheese made from cow's milk. It is produced using traditional methods, with the milk from cows raised on organic feed without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers. The cheese is aged for at least 12 months, developing a sharp, nutty flavor and granular texture.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use organic Parmesan as a flavorful ingredient and topping in a wide variety of foods. Its savory taste enhances pasta dishes, pizzas, salads, and baked goods. It is also often grated over soups and vegetables.

Health notes

Parmesan cheese is a natural food ingredient and is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. It is a good source of protein and calcium. JECFA has evaluated cheese and did not set a numeric limit (ADI not specified). As with all dairy products, it contains lactose and fat, and intake should be considered as part of a balanced diet.

Allergen info

Parmesan cheese is derived from milk, which is one of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. It does not contain gluten.
