Why Parmesan and Pork Chops Work So Well Together
Parmesan cheese does more than add flavor:
-
It creates a crispy, golden crust when baked
-
Adds a salty, nutty richness
-
Helps seal in moisture, keeping pork tender
When paired with mild pork chops, the result is balanced, comforting, and deeply satisfying.
