Ingredients of Provolone Salame Piccante

Ingredients:
Fat 44+, pasteurized cow's milk, rennet, starter culture, salt

The spicy taste of Southern Italy

The Provolone Salame Piccante is one of the most appreciated cheeses from Italy. This 'pasta filata' cheese (stretched curd cheese) is traditionally prepared from high-quality cow's milk. Where the Dolce variant is soft and sweet, this Piccante variant traditionally uses a different kind of rennet, after which it ripens considerably longer. This ripening process, varying from a few months to over a year, results in a firm, compact structure with a dry rind and a beautifully intense, sharp and spicy flavor.

Thanks to its distinct flavor profile, this cheese is an absolute star in the kitchen. It is fantastic to grate fresh over an authentic pasta, pizza or risotto. In addition, Provolone has excellent melting properties, making it perfect for paninis, warm casseroles and gratinated dishes. Of course, it is also delicious in cubes on a richly filled cheese board, preferably accompanied by a full glass of Italian red wine.

At GoudaCheeseShop.com we treat our premium cheeses with the greatest care. We only cut your piece of Provolone Salame Piccante fresh from the large cheese the moment your order arrives. Almost immediately afterwards, we pack your cheese tightly and completely airtight in a vacuum. To perfectly protect the firm structure and spicy aromas during the journey, we always ship your order with a cooling pack as standard. This way you are guaranteed to enjoy fresh top quality.

Frequently Asked Questions about Provolone Salame Piccante

What does Salame mean in the name of this cheese?

The addition Salame simply refers to the elongated, cylindrical shape in which this specific Provolone is ripened. The cheese is hung up with ropes during production, resulting in the characteristic shape that is strongly reminiscent of a salami sausage.

Is this cheese suitable for vegetarians?

No, animal rennet is traditionally used in the preparation of authentic Provolone Piccante. As a result, the cheese is unfortunately not suitable for a strict vegetarian diet.

Does this cheese melt well?

Yes, certainly! Because Provolone is a stretched curd cheese (pasta filata), it has truly fantastic melting properties. It strings nicely and melts smoothly, making it indispensable in warm Italian dishes and on toasted sandwiches.

Do you also sell other Italian cheeses?

Absolutely! In addition to the Provolone Salame Piccante, we have an extensive range of the tastiest cheeses from Italy. View our complete category Italian Cheese to discover all our Mediterranean delicacies.
