Description

Dry Parmesan cheese is a hard, granular cheese originating from the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy, specifically from the provinces of Parma, Reggio Emilia, Modena, and parts of Mantua and Bologna. It is known for its intense, slightly salty flavor with nutty notes, making it ideal for grating and using as a seasoning in a wide variety of dishes, especially pastas, salads, and soups.

This cheese is made from the milk of cows fed primarily on grass and natural forage, and its aging process can last between 12 and 36 months, which gives it its dry texture and characteristic concentrated flavor. In addition to adding a special touch to recipes, dry Parmesan cheese is a good source of protein, calcium, and B vitamins, promoting bone and muscle health.

In the culinary sphere of Latin America, it is also commonly found under names such as grated Parmesan cheese, hard Parmesan cheese, or simply Parmesan. Its versatility makes it an essential ingredient for enhancing the flavor of both traditional and contemporary dishes, providing an unmistakable aroma and texture.
