Parmesan Padano Duro Da Grattuggia

Tasting Notes from the Curator

Parmesan Padano Grattuggia is white-paste cheese that is uniform and semi-hard, which is produced with whole pasteurized Italian cow’s milk, good for both meal and grating. The processing is the same as for Grana Padano and Parmigiano Reggiano but is not marked by either of the two Protection Consortia. The product is free of lysozyme and vegetable rennet. It is aged for at least 9-10 months. It has a gritty texture and nutty in taste.

Pairings

Parmesan Padano Grattuggia is mostly grated over pastas, used in soups and risottos. It is also eaten on its own as a snack..

For wine pairings, this cheese makes a great partner to light-bodied white wines with floral aromas that won’t overpower the cheese. Some recommendations are Moscato D’Asti, Gewurtztraminer and Riesling.
