Piave Cheese
Excellent, crystalline with silky mouth feel.
Tropically fruity with a bitter almond undercurrent; Grana's crystalline texture with a more buttery mouthfeel; Nutty, fruity and bold.
Country of Origin: Italy
Milk Type/Treatment: Pasteurized Cow
Rennet Type: Animal
Older specimens resemble a young Parmigiano Reggiano and serve best with simple accompaniments such as fresh or dried fruit. Piave is best eaten 'off the wheel' or shaved into a variety of dishes.
Deep in Italy's Dolomite region, Producers apply the "Ancient Laws of the Dairyman's Art" to produce a cheese worthy of its DOP status. Milk is ripened with locally produced milk and whey starter cultures before traditional animal rennet is applied. The curd is cooked and moulded; then brined. The cheeses are then cellar aged while being brushed, washed and turned. Older specimens resemble a young, sweet, Parmigiano.
Shave over a salad or enjoy as-is with sunflower honey and Di Bruno Bros. Sweet Abbruzze Sausage.
