Parmesanost eller Parmigiano Reggiano

... Parmigiano Reggiano is a long-aged cheese - minimum 12 months - derived from cow's milk, calf rennet and a pinch of salt. It is made up of 30% water and 70% nutrients and takes on sweeter or spicier flavours and aftertaste depending on the type of seasoning and cow from which it comes.

When can you enjoy Parmigiano Reggiano? This type of cheese goes perfectly with any dish. You will appreciate it grated in pasta, rice and soup or as an appetizer to accompany Spritz or a cocktail during an aperitif. In addition, it can become the flagship of salads and cutting boards. Without forgetting the fact that he is often a guest of honour at weddings: the shape of Parmigiano Reggiano, with the flakes inside, is one of the key elements of the Italian wedding ... and beyond.
