What it is

Smoked provolone cheese is a semi-hard, Italian-style cheese made from cow's milk. It is typically aged for a few months, giving it a firm texture and a sharp, often smoky flavor. The smoking process is usually done over wood chips, which imparts a distinct aroma and taste.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add smoked provolone cheese for its distinct smoky flavor and melting properties. It is commonly found in pizzas, sandwiches, pasta dishes, and as a topping for grilled meats. Its firm texture also makes it suitable for slicing and snacking.

Health notes

Smoked provolone 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 aged cheeses, it contains sodium. The World Health Organization (WHO) and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) have evaluated various food ingredients, but specific evaluations for 'smoked provolone cheese' as a distinct entity are not widely published. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from typical consumption of cheese.

Allergen info

Smoked provolone cheese is derived from milk, which is one of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
