Cravero San Pietro Parmigiano Reggiano

Made by Massimo Libra at the Caseificio Sociale San Pietro, latterie no. 2659 in Benedello, among the Apennine hills, south of Modena. Awarded the Prodotto di Montagna, a designation of Parmigiano-Reggiano reserved for the handful of cheeses made from the milk of cows whose forage comes from the mountains. Selected and matured by Giorgio Cravero’s century and a half old firm in the town of Bra in Piemonte. This is an exceptionally smooth, creamy cheese, with a moist texture interspersed with the satisfying crunch of the tyrosine crystals. It is not dry, chalky or grainy.

Ingredients: Raw cow's milk, salt, rennet, cultures
