Parmesan Makes Everything Better!

People love bacon. Everywhere you look, from breakfast diners to the Food Network, you hear of people saying that bacon makes everything better. Well, here at Saucey's Catering, we believe that Parmesan Cheese makes everything better!

Parmesan cheese is a hard, dry cheese made for skimmed cows mild. It is aged anywhere from 14 months (in the U.S.) to 4 years (specific types of Italian Parmigiano-Reggiano) and has a sweet, buttery, and salty flavor profile, which tends to get stronger as its aged longer.

In cooking, salt is used to actually bring out and enhance the foods natural flavors, which makes food taste better. Because Parmesan Cheese has a salty and distinct flavor to it, it can be added to almost anything to enhance flavor and add depth to the dish.

Things that we like to add Parmesan Cheese to include:
Spaghetti and Meatballs
Chicken Parmesan
Lasagna
Spinach and Artichoke Dip
Stuffed Mushroom Caps
Creamy Mushroom Risotto
Assorted Crostini's
Stuffed Tomatoes
Grilled Zucchini cups
Carmelized onion and cheese tartlets

What a great ingredient! There's nothing like it to give you more flavor in a smaller package. Move over bacon, here comes Parmesan Cheese! Go to our website at www.sauceyscatering.com to check out more delicious dishes that we add Parmesan Cheese!
