The Parmigiano Reggiano famous and appreciated all over the world, it is also the most imitated food product ever.

However, not everyone knows that the Parmigiano Reggiano DOP it can only be produced in a well-defined area comprising a few provinces in the Po Valley, namely Parma, Reggio Emilia, Modena, Bologna, and Mantua.

The Parmigiano Reggiano Consortium is responsible for protecting and promoting this exceptional treasure.

From the Parma Apennines comes the Parmigiano Reggiano DOP mountain cheese made only with milk, salt, and rennet, as the rules dictate.

The production area is the secret to this specialty: in these green hills, the cows breathe healthy air and are free to graze and feed on tasty, fragrant grasses and hay.

It takes 14 liters of milk to make 1 kg of Parmigiano; the long aging process further dries the cheese. This is why Parmigiano has such unique nutritional properties.

The Parmigiano Reggiano what has been made today will be on your table in at least two years. It must rest on special wooden boards called scalere. During the months of aging, the wheels are brushed and turned periodically.

The cheese dries and the rind takes on a straw yellow color, which becomes darker over time.

Finally, after at least 24 months finally, after at least 24 months, it is cut into pieces and vacuum-packed. It then arrives at our warehouse, ready to reach your tables and the tables of gourmets all over the world.

Thanks to its remarkable versatility, Parmigiano Reggiano is an irreplaceable ingredient in good Italian cuisine. Grated, it has always been the ideal condiment for pasta, rice, and soups.

But the Parmigiano Reggiano it is also excellent on its own, thanks to its characteristic fullness and delicacy.

A classic combination based on peasant wisdom is with pears, but many have yet to discover the equally harmonious combination of flavors of Parmigiano Reggiano with fruit jams, honey, walnuts, and Traditional Balsamic Vinegar.

Did you know that the rind can also be used in cooking? After washing and drying it, remove the outer layer with a grater and it can be used in various ways.

For example, add it while cooking soups or minestrone: the heat will release the cheese's flavor, which will be even more intense than if it were simply grated.
