Vegan Parmesan Cheese
Vegan Parmesan is a plant-based Parmesan-style cheese alternative, usually used as a grated topping for pasta, salads, roasted vegetables, and savory snacks. It aims to deliver that salty, nutty, umami flavor of classic Parmigiano without any dairy. Nutritionally, Vegan Parmesan can provide a useful amount of 20.4 and is often fortified with B vitamins, including vitamin B12. It is also relatively energy-dense, so a little can go a long way. Overall, it can be a convenient way to add flavor while avoiding dairy, especially when fortified ingredients are used. The main thing to watch is its salt content, since parmesan-style seasonings are often quite salty.
