The authentic taste of Italy
Grana Padano is one of the most famous and beloved cheeses from Italy. This hard cheese originates in the fertile Po Valley in Northern Italy, where the cheese has been prepared according to a traditional recipe by monks since the twelfth century. The name 'Grana' refers to the characteristic grainy structure of the cheese, while 'Padano' indicates the origin from the valley of the river Po. After preparation, the cheese is given plenty of time to mature in peace, so that the flavors can develop optimally.
During this maturation process, the characteristic, crumbly texture and the rich, complex taste are created. Grana Padano is less sharp than its brother Parmigiano Reggiano and has a more subtle, slightly sweet and buttery undertone with a hint of nutmeg. This versatility makes the cheese ideal for grating fresh over a warm pasta or a creamy risotto. In addition, broken into coarse pieces (with a drop of balsamic vinegar), the cheese is an absolute star on any cheese board.
Freshly cut from the knife for the best quality
At GoudaCheeseShop.com we treat our premium cheeses with the greatest care. As soon as you place your order, we only cut your piece of Grana Padano fresh from the large, imposing cheese wheels. Immediately after cutting, the cheese is packed tightly and completely airtight in a vacuum. To preserve the robust structure and the rich aromas during shipping, we always send your order including a cooling pack. This allows you to bring absolute top quality into your home.
Frequently Asked Questions about Grana Padano
What is the difference between Grana Padano and Parmesan cheese?
Although they look alike, Grana Padano is often slightly younger and milder in taste than Parmigiano Reggiano. In addition, Grana Padano may be produced in a larger area in Northern Italy, while Parmesan cheese is restricted to a smaller region.
Is this cheese suitable for pregnant women?
Yes! This Grana Padano is prepared with pasteurized cow's milk. Because it is also a hard cheese with little moisture, you can safely enjoy it during pregnancy.
What is the best way to store Grana Padano?
It is best to store this hard cheese in the refrigerator, well wrapped in cheese paper or cling film to prevent it from drying out. In the unopened vacuum packaging, the cheese stays fresh for months.
