Parmesan, Reduced-Sodium, Grated

Parmesan, Reduced-Sodium, Grated is an aged Italian hard cheese commonly used grated over pasta, salads and soups for a sharp, savory umami finish. It is known for its nutty, salty flavor and granular texture that comes from long aging. As a concentrated dairy product, Parmesan, Reduced-Sodium, Grated is a rich source of protein, providing about 38g of protein per 100g, and it also supplies notable amounts of calcium and B12. Because it’s used in small amounts as a seasoning, it delivers these nutrients in a compact form but also contributes saturated fat and sodium compared with many other toppings. This reduced-sodium variety keeps the characteristic Parmesan flavor while lowering added salt; it remains a high-quality protein ingredient with a strong amino acid profile suitable for boosting savory dishes.
