The pride of Italy: Parmigiano Reggiano
The Parmigiano Reggiano is considered the king of cheeses worldwide and that is absolutely for a reason. This famous Italian hard cheese is made according to centuries-old traditions in the specific region around Parma and Reggio Emilia. The cheese is traditionally prepared with raw, unpasteurized cow's milk, which provides an unprecedentedly deep and complex palette of flavors. After the careful preparation, this cheese is given no less than 24 months to mature in peace in special warehouses. This long maturation process ensures the fantastic, granular structure with those typical crispy salt crystals that are so loved.
The taste of this 24-month matured Parmesan is exceptionally rich, intense and savory with subtle nutty aromas. It is an extremely versatile cheese in the kitchen. You can grate it beautifully over a warm pasta, shave it over a fresh salad or fresh carpaccio, or simply break it into small chunks to enjoy pure with a drop of balsamic vinegar and a good glass of wine.
With 500 grams you have a week of Parmigiano Reggiano at home. Need more or less? See all weights of Parmigiano Reggiano.
Freshly cut, vacuum-packed and shipped cooled
Your 500 g piece is cut fresh only after you order, and vacuum-packed straight away. The cheese is then shipped cooled to your door. Keep the cheese in the fridge and take it out about half an hour before serving to get the most flavour.
Frequently Asked Questions about Parmigiano Reggiano
Why are there white crispy pieces in the cheese?
During the long maturation process of 24 months, the proteins in the cheese crystallize, creating small, white salt crystals. These provide a wonderful bite and are a sign of excellent maturation and top quality.
Is the rind of Parmesan cheese edible?
The hard rind is natural, but very tough and not really meant to be eaten directly. However, you can use the rind perfectly as a flavor enhancer! For example, throw it in a pan of fresh soup or pasta sauce to give the dish a fantastic savory taste.
Is this cheese made from raw milk?
Yes, authentic Parmigiano Reggiano is always made from unpasteurized (raw) cow's milk. Because it is a very hard cheese that has matured for a long time (24 months) and contains very little moisture, this cheese is generally considered safe. However, in case of doubt regarding pregnancy, we recommend always consulting a doctor.
Do you also sell other Italian cheeses?
