I just wanted to let you know that Parmesan cheese is not vegetarian because in order for it to be called Parmesan it is made with a method involving enzymes from the stomachs of calves.
Kiersten says
That’s not true–that labeling rule only applies in EU countries. In the US, Parmesan cheese made without animal rennet is easily available. I usually buy Whole Foods 365 or Organic Valley brands.
Alanah Nasadyk says
I didn’t know about the US rules, I was just concerned that readers unaware of the traditional rennet content in Parmesan would want to be informed. I’m relieved that you’re using a different kind!
