How it's made	First of all, milk is pasteurized at a temperature of about 70°C (158°F) and then milk enzymes and calf rennet are added. Once it is coagulated, curdling takes place until the curd reaches the size of a sweet corn seed. Afterwards the texture is separated from the whey and laid in moulds. Texture rests in special warm rooms where it can reach optimal PH levels.

Combinations

We suggest to enjoy this cheese on its own; but it is also excellent with cured meat like Finocchiona or just with a bit of honey. To be paired with Morellino di Scansano.
